eRFX
The on-demand eRFX module uses a collaborative approach to simplify and automate the process of creating an RFP by multiple team members, publishing an RFP to suppliers, collecting, evaluating and scoring supplier responses and making supplier selection decisions. It also provides a central repository of all RFPs for future reference.
