Sourcing

eSourcing software where the best supplier wins on merit

Run RFI, RFP, and RFQ events with configurable templates, weighted scoring, and clean side-by-side bid comparison. Transparent for your team and your suppliers.

Cimmra sourcing bid comparison

Sourcing decisions made over email and spreadsheets are hard to defend. Questions differ between suppliers, scoring happens informally, and the comparison lives in someone’s head.

Cimmra Sourcing structures the whole event: consistent questions from reusable templates, weighted technical and commercial scoring by the right evaluators, and a comparison table that makes the award decision a review rather than a debate.

Reusable event templates

Launch your next RFQ in minutes with question banks and templates that ask the same things the same way, every time.

Weighted scoring

Technical and commercial sections scored separately with defined weights, so a low price cannot mask a weak technical response.

Side-by-side comparison

Every bid in one table with normalized prices and computed scores. Award with a full event history behind the decision.

How it works

  1. Create the event from a template and define criteria and weights up front.
  2. Invite qualified suppliers, who respond through the supplier portal.
  3. Evaluators score technical and commercial sections independently.
  4. Compare bids side by side and award. The winning bid becomes a PO without retyping.

Frequently asked questions

Which event types are supported?

RFI, RFP, and RFQ events, including multi-round events, with configurable sections, questionnaires, and price sheets.

Can technical and commercial evaluations be separated?

Yes. Different evaluators can score different sections without seeing each other’s inputs, and weights combine them into a final score.

How do suppliers participate?

Suppliers receive an invitation and respond through the Cimmra supplier portal, with documents, clarifications, and revisions tracked in one place.

Is the event history auditable?

Every question, response, score, and revision is recorded, so internal stakeholders and auditors see the same complete picture.
