Use case · Buyers who want competitive quotations for a defined requirement without managing an email thread per supplier.

Running a multi-supplier RFQ

How a buyer sends one RFQ to several verified suppliers on Complyra, tracks responses, reminds late suppliers and compares the quotations side by side.

The problem

  • Each supplier gets a slightly different email, so quotations are not comparable.
  • Responses arrive in different formats and have to be re-typed into a spreadsheet.
  • Late suppliers are forgotten until the deadline has passed.

The workflow in Complyra

  1. Shortlist

    Ranked matches with compliance results form the shortlist.

  2. One RFQ, several suppliers

    The same generated RFQ goes to the selected group; each invitation is tracked.

  3. Notify and remind

    Suppliers are notified in their portal and reminded before the deadline by a scheduled job.

  4. Structured responses

    Quotations arrive with the same fields for every supplier.

  5. Compare and accept

    Responses are compared per supplier and the accepted quotation becomes the purchase order.

Capabilities used

  • Multi-supplier RFQ groups
  • Per-supplier response tracking
  • In-app supplier notifications
  • Scheduled deadline reminders
  • Quotation comparison

What this use case does not cover: Complyra does not run reverse auctions or automatically award the RFQ.
