Initial Situation
A construction company must obtain material and service quotes for every project. The manual email-based process takes 3-4 weeks per quote round. For time-critical projects, price comparisons are often skipped – the first available vendor wins. This leads to 15-20% inflated material costs for urgent projects.
Your Solution with simple system
- Create RFQ with all project specifications in 15 minutes
- Send to 5+ vendors simultaneously with short deadline (3-5 days)
- Automatic reminders maximize response rate
- Comparison matrix enables decision on the day of quote deadline
- Automatic article and order creation on the same day
- Entire round completed in 5-7 days instead of 3-4 weeks
Result: Project material is procured 70% faster. Competition is established even for urgent projects.
Your Benefit
- Time savings: 3-4 weeks → 5-7 days per quote round = 70% faster
- EBIT impact: +€30,000/year (avoided rush surcharges) + €16,000/year (competition savings) = +€46,000/year
