How to get price quotes from several suppliers at once

Step 1: write the request for quotation

You fill in the title, the description (at least 30 characters), the category, the location and how long it stays open, 30 days by default. The request can be typed, dictated or extracted from a scanned document, and the AI assistant helps you write a clear description. RO/EN translation is built in.

• Write the quantity, technical specifications and the delivery time you need, so the offers are comparable.
• Attach the relevant documents, for example a bill of quantities or a technical sheet.

Step 2: publish it and the platform finds matching suppliers

Once published, the RFQ is active immediately. Automatic matching combines keyword search with semantic search and ranks suppliers by a score that takes into account company verification, ANAF verification, rating, distance, category and negotiation history. Suppliers following that kind of request get an in-app, push or email notification.

Step 3: receive offers from several suppliers

Every interested supplier sends an offer on your RFQ, and all offers appear on the "Offers" page. If you already know whom you want a price from, you also send a direct price request to that company, from its profile or a product page, and in product search you compare up to 3 products side by side.

Step 4: negotiate in rounds with each supplier

You negotiate price and terms separately with each supplier, in structured rounds (up to 20), with messages and attached documents. The party that has to answer gets reminders, and an offer without completion expires after 30 days.

Step 5: confirm the agreement and, if needed, the contract

Acceptance takes two phases: one party accepts the offer and the other confirms the agreement. Then you choose with or without a contract; the contract is generated from a template (PDF) or uploaded and accepted by both parties. After the agreement, the companies can rate and review each other.

RFQ by email or on a platform: what changes

An RFQ sent by email only reaches the suppliers you already know, and comparing offers, checking companies and keeping the negotiation history are manual. On a B2B platform, the same request also reaches new, automatically matched, ANAF-verified suppliers, and the offers, messages and agreement stay in one place.
