How it works

From requirement list to client offer, in six steps

A request for quote to suppliers is the price request you send them for the materials or products you need. In Oifers it starts from your requirement list and ends with the offer you send your client.

  1. Build the requirement list

    Pick products and quantities from your catalogue; anything missing you add to the catalogue on the spot. If you already have the client offer, you turn it into a requirement list with one click.

  2. Send the request to several suppliers

    Choose suppliers from your list and send each one only the lines that concern them; the same line can go to several. Set a deadline and the supplier gets an automatic reminder 24 hours before it.

  3. Suppliers answer on every line

    The supplier opens the request from the email, creates an account on the spot and fills in price, availability and lead time on each line. They can also propose their own products and attach files.

  4. Compare the quotes line by line

    On every line you see the suppliers' prices next to the price in your own catalogue. If one supplier answers in EUR and another in RON, you compare on the same basis, at the exchange rate you choose.

  5. Order what won

    You accept a supplier's quote in full or only for the lines it won. On a client offer's requirement list you order once the client has accepted; on an independent one, right away. Orders appear in the Orders tab.

  6. Generate the client offer

    From the comparison you generate the offer for your client, with your markup applied automatically and editable per line. The client never sees your cost or margin, and the offer goes out as a link they accept online.

What your supplier sees

The supplier gets a request link by email and answers in the Oifers offer editor.

On the request link

  • They create an account from the request page, with the invited email already filled in or with Google; that email needs no further verification.
  • They fill in price, availability and lead time on every line, in your currency or in another one they choose.
  • They can propose their own products and attach files; proposed lines appear separately in your comparison.
  • They don't see who your client is: only the request title you chose and the lines you sent them.

Request prices without a client offer

A requirement list doesn't have to start from an offer. Create an independent requirement list when you buy for stock, for the workshop or for a job that has no offer yet, optionally inside a project.

You send the requests, compare and order the same way. When a client turns up, you generate the client offer straight from the requirement list.

Your suppliers, not a request marketplace

Oifers doesn't look for suppliers on your behalf and doesn't publish your requests. You send the request for quote to the suppliers in your own list, kept separate from your clients, and they answer from the link they received. Suppliers need an Oifers account, which they create from the request page.

Included in every plan

Supplier requests, the comparison and orders are included in every plan, even before you choose one. Suppliers don't take a seat in your plan. A supplier's quote is a regular offer in their own account and counts against that account's 10 free offers, like any published offer.

Request-for-quote software

Supplier quote requests and quote comparison, in the same place as your client offer

Oifers is quoting software that also covers the buying side: you request prices from suppliers, compare their quotes line by line and turn the result into the offer for your client. Instead of copying prices from emails and spreadsheets into a comparison table, the answers land directly on the lines of your requirement list.

Oifers is not public procurement software: it doesn't run tenders or public award procedures, it works with your company's own suppliers. Use it in construction, plumbing and electrical work, interior finishing, solar or any business where the client's price depends on supplier prices.

Frequently asked questions

Does the supplier need an Oifers account?

Yes. The supplier creates an account from the request page, with the email the request was sent to already filled in, or with Google, and answers right away. If they already have an account, the request shows up directly under “Requests received”. Their quote counts against their own account's 10 free offers, like any published offer.

Does the supplier see who my client is?

No. The supplier only sees the request title you chose and the lines you send them. Your client's details and your selling price stay in your account.

Can I compare quotes in lei and in euros?

Yes. A supplier can answer in your currency or in another one. In the comparison, prices are converted at the exchange rate you choose, so you compare lines on the same basis.

Can I request prices without a client offer?

Yes. Create an independent requirement list, with or without a project, send the requests and order directly. If a client turns up, you generate the client offer from the requirement list.

Can I order only some of the lines from a supplier?

Yes. You accept a supplier's quote in full or only for the lines it won, and order the other lines from other suppliers. Orders appear in the Orders tab.

Are supplier requests included in my plan?

Yes. Every feature is included in every plan, even before you choose one, while you use your 10 free offers. Suppliers don't take a seat in your plan.
