Start with the evidence you have
A buyer can begin with a product photo, URL, model number, specification, drawing, BOQ, PIP, or narrative requirement. The intake captures quantity, timing, project context, destination, and any non-negotiable criteria.
Normalize before comparing
Incomplete descriptions create incomparable quotes. The requirement is translated into line items and structured specifications, with clarification requests kept on the RFQ record. Exact-match requirements and acceptable equivalents are recorded explicitly.
Source through the right route
Domestic distribution, available inventory, domestic manufacturing, hospitality suppliers, and verified international factories can be evaluated. Supplier identity, internal costs, margin, and confidential bid details remain internal.
Present decision-ready options
Quote options identify specification status, quantity, pricing, lead time, logistics, warranty, samples, exclusions, validity, and commercial assumptions. Revisions create new versions so acceptance always points to the exact approved record.
Control the post-approval work
Samples, production, quality inspection, freight, delivery milestones, documents, messages, and exceptions remain connected to the order and visible at the appropriate permission level.
