BID & TENDER MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
for procurement teams
While e-procurement systems tend to focus on the detail of collating bidders' information, specifications and prices, there is a constant need to communicate with potential suppliers, staff, partners and other key stakeholders, before, during and after a procurement � and without delay.
Fairness and the optimum result mean that everyone must be kept informed about answers to issues raised, project updates and milestones, and any significant changes that may occur. External consultants and legal advisers are often involved, and they need to be plugged consistently into the process.
Emails can be an issue, with large attachments being rejected by firewalls, while existing internal systems are often unsuitable for sharing information with external bidders and partners, for security reasons.

SUPPORT EXCELLENT PROCUREMENT WITH AN ECONOMICAL, PURPOSE-BUILT COMMUNICATION ENVIRONMENT
INOVEM Inclusionware™ provides a rapidly-implemented solution for managing the communications around your procurement project transparently and easily.
The affordable, web-based INOVEM Bid & Tender Management System solution enables you to quickly set up 'virtual data rooms' to communicate and share information with project boards, interested parties and individual prospective suppliers.
The solution makes it easy to keep all registered users informed, distributing email notifications to all bidders when supplier meetings are timetabled, when documentation is uploaded and revised, or when formal responses and points of clarification are added to the searchable FAQ database. Authorised users can select the frequency of the alerts they receive, determining what and when information is downloaded to their PC.
Private and confidential 'data rooms' make it easy to manage and collectively develop, share and obtain feedback on documentation, deliverables and project milestones with key stakeholders and external client-side consultants. These can also include simple-to-use issue and risk registers as well as diaries for meeting announcements and scheduled reminders for assigned tasks.
