1. What is a request for quotation (RFQ)?
An RFQ is a standard business process whose purpose is to invite suppliers into a bidding process to bid on specific products or services.
2. How does this service benefit you?
As always, we are thinking of your leads. Our RFQ system will allow for more refined leads according to proximity and project description, without you doing anything. You can boost your chances of being matched for a request for quotation.
Just make sure that your sales network is up to date with the correct geographic zone.
If you’re matched with an RFQ, be sure to provide a quality response in a reasonable amount of time. This will help improve your ratings!
3. How does an RFQ work on our website?
Buyers can take advantage of our supplier network and complete their purchasing projects by using our “Free quotation comparison tool”.
Some buyers on our websites have projects in mind but don’t know where to begin or what products to consult. Or perhaps they know what type of products they are interested in, but don’t know which exact product will correspond to their needs. When buyers are searching for a product on our website, they’ll see a pop-in on the left side of the page:
Step 1: Buyers click on it and are taken to an information form to fill out. The form asks for a brief description of the timing of the project, the budget and the location, as well as the contact info.
Step 2: Our team of experts then look at the details of the buyer’s request for quotation and match it to sellers according to the description and geographic location.
Step 3: The sellers then get in touch with the buyer and potentially send them a quotation.
Step 4: Buyers can compare quotations to complete their purchase and contact the sellers they are interested in.
