"The eBid eXchange system is painless. I can remember the days when there was an assembly line to get bid documents out. I couldn’t have kept up with my job if I hadn’t made the switch to eBid back in 2002."

Benefits

eBid eXchange serves as your private portal for collaboration between your internal team members and your vendors, providing real-time information about your procurement activities.

Streamline and standardize the vendor qualification process

With eBid eXchange your self-service vendor registration portal establishes a consistent workflow for the capture and updating of key information needed in sourcing decisions. Now your vendors can keep their profile information up-to-date instead of burdening your in-house staff with manually updating a vendor database.

Shorten the time from bid to award

Publishing and communicating information about an invitation for bid, request for quote, or request for proposal can be accomplished in minutes, saving days or weeks in a typical procurement cycle.

"The savings in hard copy distribution of bid documents alone cuts our operational costs and provides a healthy return on investment. …our staff can now devote more time and thought into planning and negotiating contracts and less time looking for fax numbers and making copies."

Reduce bid document distribution costs

For purchasing and estimating staff working in services and construction procurement, the cost of printing and distributing plans and specifications can cost thousands of dollars per project. eBid eXchange can serve as your private plan room for electronic distribution of bid documents as well as provide ordering and fulfillment by local printers if needed.

Increase vendor competition and lower costs

An inefficient process for distributing bid invitations often means having to limit the competition to fewer vendors. With eBid eXchange you can communicate with one hundred or one thousand prospective suppliers with no additional effort, ensuring maximum competition and lower prices for your goods and services.

"eBid Systems has allowed us to provide even more enhanced services to our customers and allow them to receive more bids and therefore more competition. Better competition equals better prices for our customers."

Centralize management of supplier relationships

Procurement staff, project managers, and other internal stakeholders use eBid eXchange to collaborate in the management of vendor relationships. All internal users can access vendor, sourcing, and contract information to ensure everyone has access to the same information and that important obligations are met.

Ensure auditable procurement processes

With your vendors and internal procurement team using eBid eXchange, you ensure that all users conform to standard workflow and business rules. Transaction logs provide and audit trail for all vendor communications, document views, and modifications to system records.
