How RFQsNow works for contractors, consultants and developers
Upload your RFQ or BOQ
Create a structured RFQ with line items, quantities, specs, and deadlines. Attach PDF drawings, CAD files, or Excel BOQs directly.
Matched suppliers are notified
Suppliers verified in your category and geography are notified promptly. Each RFQ goes to a curated group — not a mass broadcast.
Compare bids in one dashboard
Every bid arrives in a standard format. Compare unit price, total price, lead time, and compliance notes side by side.
Designed for the teams who run GCC procurement.
Procurement Managers
If you manage RFQs across multiple live projects simultaneously, RFQsNow replaces the WhatsApp threads, the follow-up calls, and the comparison spreadsheets with a single tracked workflow. Every RFQ. Every bid. Every award decision — in one place.
MEP Supply Chain Coordinators
If your role is to source subcontractors across a portfolio of active projects, RFQsNow gives you a repeatable system. Post an RFQ. Receive structured bids from matched suppliers. Compare in one view. Award on platform. The next project starts from the same workflow.
MEP Managers and Project Directors
If you are specifying AV, ELV, or Lighting scopes where technical compliance matters as much as price, RFQsNow matches your RFQ to suppliers with verified category experience — not just whoever responded first to a WhatsApp message.
Get multiple qualified bids in 18 to 48 hours
Structured, comparable bids from day one
Stop chasing quotes across WhatsApp and email. Suppliers come to you with structured, comparable submissions — same format, every time.
Less manual follow-up
Monitor supplier response progress in one place instead of chasing updates across multiple channels.
Standardized bid comparison
Every bid follows the same format — unit price, total cost, lead time, compliance. No reformatting spreadsheets.
Documented workflow history
Keep a documented record of the RFQ, bid review, and award workflow for internal coordination and project reporting.
Full visibility control — public, private, or invite-only
Run a public RFQ to discover new suppliers, a private RFQ for confidential projects, or an invite-only RFQ limited to suppliers you already trust. You decide who sees each procurement requirement.
Active across the full range of GCC project types.
Compare price, lead time and compliance in one dashboard
Every bid arrives in a structured format. For each line item you see the supplier name, unit price, total cost, lead time in days, and any compliance notes or certifications. Sort by price, filter by lead time, and accept or reject individual bids with one click.
Accepted suppliers receive a clear outcome update. Rejected suppliers receive a professional response. The award process stays documented in one workflow.
Frequently asked questions
How quickly will I receive supplier bids?
Most active RFQs receive a first supplier response within 18 to 48 hours of publication.
How are suppliers matched to my RFQ?
Suppliers are matched by category and geography. We do not broadcast your RFQ to everyone on the platform. Each RFQ goes to a curated group of relevant, verified suppliers. This keeps bid quality high and ensures the suppliers who respond are genuinely positioned to deliver.
How many suppliers will see my RFQ?
The number varies by category, geography, and project size. We deliberately limit distribution to protect bid quality and ensure suppliers are taking your project seriously. You will receive a manageable set of structured, relevant submissions — not an unmanageable volume.
Can I keep my RFQ private?
Yes. You can run public RFQs visible to all matched suppliers, fully private RFQs, or invite-only RFQs targeted at specific suppliers.
What file formats can I attach?
PDF, Excel, Word, CSV, PNG, JPEG, DWG, DXF, and IFC files are all supported. Attach BOQs, drawings, and specifications directly to your RFQ.
How are suppliers verified?
Every supplier goes through category validation, project history verification, and geographic relevance checks before they can access and bid on RFQs.
How is RFQ quality maintained?
Every RFQ is reviewed against a minimum quality standard before it is released to suppliers. Required before going live: category, geography, BOQ or scope document, bid deadline, confirmed buyer identity, and active procurement status — not a price check. This ensures suppliers who pay for access receive real, complete opportunities.
