It gives us great pleasure to introduce a new and exciting way of requesting tender prices from your suppliers.


Bills of Quantities and related documents are easily attached to the request for quotation (eRFQ) and at the click of a button can be faxed, e-mailed or accessed on-line by the supplier. Making use of standard and freely available Internet technology, the system requires no special software. Estimators and buyers can collaborate by sending extracts from Bills of Quantities to categories of suppliers. The suppliers can be assigned to more than one category and can be activated or de-activated for specific eRFQ's.

The buyer-supplier relationship remains intact. Suppliers select their own method of receiving eRFQ's, enabling those without Internet connectivity to elect to receive their eRFQ's via email or fax. Buyers and suppliers are informed of incoming eRFQ's via email or SMS. When sending eRFQ's, the system automatically selects suppliers according to their category, and delivers the eRFQ based on the method of despatch selected by the supplier. The buyer may at any stage obtain information regarding the status of eRFQ's.



A cover page, relevant terms and conditions, electronic Bill of Quantities, related documents and individual line items can be included with the eRFQ in most standard document formats. The supplier receives only his list of eRFQ'S, sorted by initiator (contractor) and at the click of a button can access all documents. Suppliers can prepare prices, attach terms and conditions, and return the eRFQ on-line at their own convenience.

Information is totally secure for both buyers and suppliers, and their related data is stored independently. User login names and passwords ensure that information is accessible only to the intended recipient.
