What this process solves

Commercial teams choose the best sourcing combination, not merely the lowest visible price.

When to use it

  • When several vendors respond to one RFQ.
  • When costs must be normalized across currencies.
  • When sourcing is split between vendors.

How the process works

  1. 01

    Register responses

    Enter or import offers while preserving original documents and versions.

  2. 02

    Normalize comparison

    Compare price, currency, availability, lead time, quantity and related costs by item.

  3. 03

    Select sources

    The chosen combination feeds calculation and later operational procurement.

Process outcome

  • Documented sourcing decision.
  • Visible lead-time and availability risk.
  • Reliable foundation for sales pricing.
