How does RFQ Software Work?

User Login and Access

Users begin by logging into the RFQ software with secure credentials. Once logged in, they can navigate through the software’s dashboard to initiate new RFQs or manage existing ones.

Requirement Specification

Users specify the requirements for the goods or services they need. They fill out detailed forms, specifying the type of product or service, quantities, specifications, delivery dates, and any special conditions.

Template Selection and RFQ Document Creation

The software provides pre-defined templates for RFQ documents, which users can select and customize as needed. You have to enter the required details into the template, including descriptions, quantities, and any additional terms. Attachments like technical drawings or specifications can be uploaded to the RFQ document.

Supplier Selection and Invitation

Users select potential suppliers from an integrated database within the software. The RFQ software allows filtering suppliers based on criteria such as past performance, location, or product category. Invitations to participate in the RFQ are sent to selected suppliers via automated emails generated by the software, so that all invited suppliers receive the RFQ details promptly.

Quotation Submission Portal

It guides suppliers through the submission process, so that they provide all required information in a standardized format. It also sends automatic reminders to suppliers about upcoming deadlines.

Quotation Aggregation and Comparison

Once suppliers submit their quotations, the software aggregates all responses into a comparative format. With this response management mechanism, users can view a side-by-side comparison of prices, delivery timelines, and other key criteria. 

Clarifications and Negotiations

If clarifications or negotiations are needed, the software facilitates direct communication between the buyer and suppliers. The tool allows for sending messages, requesting additional information, or even asking for revised quotations. 

Supplier Selection and Approval Workflow

Based on the aggregated data and analysis, users select the preferred supplier(s). There is an approval workflow, requiring internal stakeholders to review and approve the selection before finalizing it.

Contract Award and Notification

The software generates notifications to inform the selected supplier(s) of the award and provides updates to those who were not selected. It also helps in the creation of contracts or purchase orders based on the terms agreed upon in the RFQ process. 

Post-Award Management and Reporting

After awarding the contract, the software helps track supplier performance and contract compliance. You can generate reports on various metrics such as supplier responsiveness, quotation accuracy, and delivery performance.
