Procurement and Vendor Operations

Compare vendors on real scores—not a spreadsheet built after the fact

A procurement team runs RFPs through email attachments sent to a dozen vendors, so comparing responses means manually copying numbers into a spreadsheet after the fact. Build a portal where responses land in a structured, scorable format from the start.

Twelve PDFs don't compare themselves

When every vendor responds in their own document format, comparing them fairly means someone manually transcribing numbers into a spreadsheet—a process that's slow and easy to get wrong under deadline pressure.

Give vendors a structured response form and score every submission against the same weighted criteria.

From event to award
  1. 1. Sourcing event is created with requirements and a vendor shortlist
  2. 2. RFP/RFQ is published to invited vendors through the portal
  3. 3. Vendors submit responses by the deadline
  4. 4. Responses are scored against defined criteria
  5. 5. Award decision is documented and the winning vendor is notified

Scenarios to test in your preview

  • A vendor must not see other vendors' submitted responses.
  • A late submission must be flagged, not silently accepted as on-time.
  • An award decision must reflect the final aggregated scores, not one evaluator's opinion alone.
