Multi-Supplier RFQ Side-by-Side Compare One-Click Award Full Audit Trail

Stop Quoting by Email. Start E-Quoting.

Informal quoting leads to missed responses, lost documentation, and inconsistent award decisions. E-Quotes fixes all of that.

Send RFQs Simultaneously

Broadcast a single quote request to multiple suppliers at the same time — with a deadline, required fields, and all specifications attached. No copying emails, no chasing responses.

Side-by-Side Comparison

When responses come in, compare all supplier quotes in a structured table — by price, lead time, quantity breaks, and any custom fields your team needs to evaluate.

One-Click Award & PO Conversion

Award to the winning supplier and convert the accepted quote to a purchase order in one click — saving the manual work of transferring quote data to a PO form.

Complete Quote History

Every quote event — who responded, what they quoted, who won, and why — is stored permanently for audit, compliance, and supplier negotiation leverage.

The E-Quote Workflow

1

Create Quote Request

Build an RFQ with item descriptions, quantities, required specs, and a response deadline. Attach any supporting documents or drawings.

2

Invite Suppliers

Select suppliers from your approved list and send the RFQ simultaneously. Suppliers receive a notification and link to submit their response online.

3

Suppliers Submit Quotes

Suppliers complete a structured quote form — entering pricing, lead time, and terms — ensuring responses are in a consistent, comparable format.

4

Compare & Award

Review all responses in a comparison view, select the winning quote, and convert to a PO with a single click. Non-awarded suppliers are notified automatically.

Key Features

Quote Templates

Build reusable RFQ templates for common purchase categories — saving time and ensuring consistency across requests.

Response Deadline Management

Set quote deadlines with automated reminder emails to suppliers — maximizing response rates without manual follow-up.

Sealed Bidding Option

Enable sealed bidding mode so suppliers cannot see competitor quotes before submitting their own — ensuring fair competition.

Weighted Scoring

Score quotes on multiple criteria — not just price — with configurable weighting for quality, delivery, or vendor diversity.

Supplier Q&A

Built-in messaging allows suppliers to ask questions about the RFQ and receive answers that are visible to all bidders — maintaining fairness.

Quote-to-PO Conversion

Awarded quotes convert directly to purchase orders with all line item data pre-populated — no re-entry required.
