About the RFP TOOLWe all know that it's a good idea to shop around before buying. The RFP TOOL (Request For Proposals/Prices) makes this easy by allowing you to communicate your needs with many suppliers at once. Just follow these 3 easy steps :
- You first need to add the suppliers you are interested in to your RFP by clicking on the “Add to my RFP” button (either in the supplier's listing or in the search results page for that supplier).
Each time you add a supplier to your RFP, you will be redirected to the RFP TOOL page to confirm this addition (the name of the supplier will be posted). Use the BACK button on your browser to return where you were to continue adding suppliers - or click the "New Search" button to launch a new search for a different category of supplier.
- You can easily review your supplier choices by clicking on their name within the RFP TOOL page to visit their detailed listing once more before finally deciding on keeping them - or delete them from your RFP by clicking on “Erase” (situated directly to the right of their name). Once you've made your final selection of suppliers for your RFP, click on the check box for each supplier and click on 'Proceed'.
- The final step consists of completing a short form describing your needs and submitting your information by clicking the 'Send' button.
