The PageBid RFP Process

HOW IT WORKS
Our premiere feature is an online procurement tool that allows a purchaser to post a RFP and then enables multiple providers to submit quotes on it. The process is straightforward and simple.

STEP 1
The purchaser submits the RFP criteria, either through PageBid's menu-driven Posting feature or via email, and may request assistance from PageBid in setting guidelines for quotes, estimating costs, running through a RFP checklist and in setting a deadline for final submissions.

STEP 2
The RFP goes out to either all qualified providers or to a select few who will respond with quotes or ask clarifying questions and receive responses through an automated Q&A process. Providers may submit an unlimited number of quotes while the bidding is open and throughout providers and purchasers are able to view the lowest current anonymous quote.

STEP 3
The deadline for quotes ends, and PageBid assists with follow up Q&As, reference checking, and provider evaluation. The final product to the purchaser is a report that analyzes the proposals, allowing the purchaser to make a more informed decision. After a selection is made the award is announced to all participants.
