Sourcing Projects Control every aspect of your sourcing project, including the team, documents, tasks, workflow, progress and communications.

RFX Automate the administrative drudgery of RFP preparation, distribution, response gathering, scenario planning, multiple awards and compliance reviews.
• Create different types of sourcing events – RFI, simple RFP, complex RFP
• Collaborate on RFX templates, use pre-configured ones or re-use ones from past rounds or projects
• Manage events with multi-rounds, multi-lot quotes and multi-proposal iterations

Auctions
Host on-line auctions to drive the lowest total cost. Use multi-criteria rankings and “What if” scenarios. Flip an auction into a contract.
