The supplier-facing bid form
Structured RFP responses → automated scoring → comparable awards. Replace Excel bid-comparison hell with a typed form bidders actually finish — and side-by-side scoring your category team can defend.
By the numbers
Across 5 sections — bidders complete in 30-45 min.
Set weights once, scores compute on every submission.
Apples-to-apples in one dashboard.
ISO 20400 + EU 2014/24/EU ready.
The use case
Your strategic sourcing team runs 40 RFPs a year. Each one: send a Word RFP doc to 15 bidders, chase 30 follow-up emails for missing pricing detail, manually re-key every Year-1 total and payment term into a Master Excel for comparison, build a scoring rubric in column AG that breaks every time someone reorders, and present a recommendation 6 weeks after the deadline. The award decision is technically defensible but practically un-auditable.
The Sourcing RFP Response form makes bid collection structured. 20 typed fields across 5 sections — bidder-perspective, with Yes/No conditional branching for no-bid reasons and variance proposals. OCR on attached proposals. Auto-scoring against your weighted criteria. Side-by-side comparison dashboard. From RFP-issued to award-decision in 3 weeks, not 6 — with an audit trail that survives the next public-tender review.
For who
Capabilities
Every bidder fills in the same typed fields in the same order. Year 1 total, payment terms, volume discount thresholds, pricing model — apples to apples across 10, 20, 50 bidders. No more reading 20 PowerPoint decks and re-keying numbers into Excel.
Set the scoring weights once (e.g., 40% price, 30% capability, 20% references, 10% compliance) and Flowie ranks bids automatically. Numeric fields score by rule; narrative fields go to your category team with the LLM Agent's draft summary. Final rankings include the audit trail of every score.
Technical and commercial PDFs are parsed by Flowie's OCR Agent on submission. Line-item pricing, SLA terms, team composition, and methodology sections are extracted into structured data. Surfaces inconsistencies between the form fields and the attached proposal automatically.
Each bidder gets a private link to their response. They can save drafts, revisit before the deadline, upload supporting docs, and download the RFP attachments — all without an email round trip. Reduces back-and-forth from 12 emails per bidder to 2.
