What has to be true before an award is recommended.
Inside the cost cap
The delivered cost stays inside the cap you approved. Anything over it comes back to you.
No silent substitution
Substitutions, minimum orders and scope changes need your buyer's approval.
The award follows your rule
Whispor recommends a supplier. Your team makes the award.
The cheapest quote isn't always the recommendation.
Crossdock came in lowest, on a different specification. That needs your buyer, so it stays out of the recommendation until someone decides.
How Sourcing works| Supplier | Sealed quote | Negotiated | Delivery |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ridgeway Pallet | $14.90 | $13.85 | Jan 9 Recommended |
| Lakeshore Wood Products | $14.40 | $14.05 | Jan 13 |
| Crossdock Supply | $13.60 | Heat-treated swap | Jan 15 |
Crossdock offered a lower price on a different specification. That needs your buyer, so it is not in the recommendation.
