Ordering Page Redesign - Simple, Clean Design Wanted

Elements

Elements is an internet based procurement and materials management system that helps businesses trade with each other more effectively by allowing purchasers to buy from their approved suppliers at the best possible price at a given point in time. Our company has been operating for over 10 years; it is time to re-design our front-end.
This is only the first of many design projects to come; we have a whole web application to redesign. We are looking to work closely with the winning designer or best designers at our discretion on an on-going basis. Show us what you can do!
The contest will start open to give everyone feedback and be made closed toward the end to ensure original work is submitted. Please review attached information.

We target organisations that regularly place a high volume of orders to suppliers. Our system is mainly used by, but not restricted to 4-5 Star International Hotels. The day to day users are varied with differing language and computer literacy skills, from Purchasing Officers, Stock Takers, Goods Receivable / Loading Dock Personnel, Inventory Managers, to Department Managers, Financial Controllers, General Managers and Regional Purchasing Managers.

No fancy graphics that distract the user from their job. Just simple and functional design. We require a design of 2 pages that make up the ‘Create a New Purchase Requisition’ section of our site (see attachments for current and proposed layout). New look and feel with emphasis is on intuitive and clear navigation. Design brief attached.
