When running competitive tendering for services, Deffinity d-tenders lets you control all parts of the process and even builds the project plan for you.

 
So often in running competitive tenders for services things start falling into the gaps between different parts of the process. In particular that between the owning and procurement departments; also, the gap between the tender process and the start of the delivery. Both cause big problems that can lead to wasted time and money. Deffinity d-tenders is designed to build bridges to avoid these problems.

 
As Deffinity d-tenders is an online system delivered via the web, everybody involved in the tender process can access the same information. No longer do you need send and receive spreadsheet and document files. These run the risk of fragmenting into many different versions and can lead to decisions being made on out-of-date information. You don't want to start the delivery of a new service by changing an agreed service level or agreeing to pay more for the service. Deffinity d-tenders helps mitigate those risks.

 
Another problem with using e-mail as the main tool in running a tender process is getting sign-off. An e-mail from the procurement department may well indicate that they are happy for the purchase to go ahead. An ‘electronic signature’ in Deffinity states for certain that they are, and stores this against the pricing and service details. All of which helps reduce the costly errors that crop up when departments collaborate on competitive tenders processes.
