Request for Quotation Management

Integrated Management of Vendor Quote Requests for Microsoft Dynamics SL

MaxQ’s Request for Quotation module provides a streamlined approach for creating vendor quote requests. Using our Request for Quotation module, you can initiate the quote request process by either manually entering an RFQ or have it loaded directly from an Order Management sales order/quote.
Next, assign the bidding vendors you have identified and our module delivers the RFQ document using the vendor’s preferred delivery method – mail, email, fax, EDI, or Excel spreadsheet. As the quotes arrive they are recorded against their associated RFQ to allow for quick and easy comparative analysis. Once the winning bid(s) has been selected, a purchase order is automatically generated.
