Our Internet system has evolved from over 10 years experience in on-line tendering and procurement. It is simple to use even for the computer illiterate, yet behind the aesthetics lies the most sophisticated engineering available. It is a "live" and secure system yet it still offers maximum flexibility and compatibility.
You complete one electronic form on the Internet and our system will do the rest. Your tender will be available for immediate viewing and remains on our network until it closes. If you don't have access to the Internet you can send the information via e-mail, fax or post and we will enter it for you. We will even advertise the tender for you in any newspaper you specify and supply a free phone-in information service.
More detail can be provided with each tender providing improved efficiency over traditional methods. The system also allows live editing facilities with logging and notification of changes to all those who have viewed documents.
Your organisation can maintain a list of nominated suppliers who are immediately notified when one of your tenders is published.
