Compare Supplier Quotes Side-by-Side for Confident Decisions
Effortlessly evaluate offers across all criteria—so you always choose the best supplier for your needs.
Key Parameters for Comparison
Price
The quoted price for the requested items or services. The system automatically incorporates any applicable discounts or taxes to calculate the final price.
Commitment Date
The supplier’s promised delivery timeline. This is particularly important for projects or orders with strict deadlines.
Payment Terms
The flexibility and conditions of payment, such as payment due dates, early payment discounts, or installment options.
Freight Charges
Additional transportation or shipping costs associated with the supply, allowing you to account for all costs in the final comparison.
Supplier Rating
A pre-existing rating based on the supplier’s historical performance, reliability, quality, and customer satisfaction. This helps evaluate not just price but the supplier’s overall reliability.
Ranking Mechanism
Total Price Calculation
The system ranks suppliers based on the total price, which is calculated as:
Total Price = Quoted Price + Freight Charges.
This ensures that all costs are considered before making a decision.
Customizable Weightage
Organizational policies can be used to assign weightage to different comparison parameters. For example, you might assign more weight to delivery timelines in time-sensitive projects or more emphasis on supplier ratings for critical goods.
Multi-Level Approval Workflow
Comparison Preparation
Once the supplier quotations are collected, the system generates a detailed comparison sheet, automatically ranking suppliers based on the selected parameters. This provides a transparent and structured overview for decision-makers.
- Purchase Head Approval
- The purchase head verifies that the rankings are in line with procurement strategies, budget constraints, and organizational policies.
- Finance Head Approval
- The finance head ensures that the vendor selection complies with financial constraints, including budget alignment and payment terms.
- Director/Senior Management Approval (for high-value procurements)
-
Senior management provides final approval for
high-value or strategic purchases, ensuring that the selection aligns with
broader organizational objectives.
