The use case

Sourcing as a repeatable workflow. Not a quarterly project.

Each RFP rebuilds the template from the last one's wreckage. Bidder discovery takes two weeks of LinkedIn-and-Google and ends with the same five suppliers the team always invites. Bids arrive in eight different Excel formats — evaluating them is a translation project before it is a scoring exercise. The contract is drafted from scratch, the won-bid terms get lost, and the institutional memory of why this supplier was chosen evaporates the moment the team moves to the next event.

Pre-built sourcing event workflow: define the need → assemble bidder list from the Flowie network (600M+ companies, filtered by category, ESG, financials, prior performance) → launch the RFP/RFQ from a reusable template → suppliers respond through a structured portal → evaluation matrix scores bids automatically across price, lead time, ESG, and custom criteria → award decision routes through approvals → contract auto-drafts from the winning bid's terms → PO setup triggered. Sourcing becomes a repeatable workflow, deployed in days.

Capabilities

What Sourcing Event Workflow actually does.

01Capability

Network-Sourced Bidder Lists

Bidder lists pre-populated from the Flowie network of 600M+ companies, filtered by category, geography, ESG score, financial health, and prior performance — instead of two weeks of LinkedIn-and-Google.

02Capability

Reusable RFP / RFQ / RFI Templates

Library of category-specific templates with built-in clauses, evaluation criteria, and scoring weights. Reuse, fork, or customize per event — no more rebuilding the questionnaire from scratch every quarter.

03Capability

Bid Collection Portal

Suppliers respond through a branded portal with structured forms instead of returning 8 different Excel files. Bids land normalized, comparable, and ready for the evaluation matrix on submission.

04Capability

Auto-Evaluation Matrix

Evaluation matrix scores bids automatically on price, lead time, ESG rating, financial health, and any custom criteria. Side-by-side comparison surfaces the winning bid with full audit trail of the scoring logic.
