Request for quote software
Request, receive and decide on vendor quotes in one place.
Request for quote software gives buyers a structured way to invite vendors, share source documents, enforce submission deadlines and collect comparable responses through private links.
Built for: Project teams requesting pricing from vendors without exposing one vendor’s information to another.
Start from the source document or a manual request
Upload a bid request or work order when it already contains the project requirements, or create a request manually with location, scope, dates, instructions and reference information. ReplyToQuote does not use AI to interpret uploaded documents.
A private page for each vendor
Each vendor receives a separate secure link with the buyer identity, project details, documents, questions and deadline. Vendors never see competing names, prices, documents, comments or decisions.
Deadline controls based on server time
Deadlines are stored in UTC with the selected time zone preserved. A hard deadline stops new submissions but leaves the secure page available; a soft deadline accepts and labels late submissions.
