Expected bid spread
By section
Why incomplete RFQs cost more than they save
- You can't compare the bids. If installation isn't specified, one supplier includes it and three don't. The cheapest bid wins and then bills for it.
- You pay for the ambiguity twice. Suppliers who read the scope generously price the risk in. Suppliers who read it narrowly price it out and recover it in change orders.
- Requote cycles eat the schedule. Every clarification round is typically three to five days.
- Good suppliers sometimes don't bid at all. An RFQ that can't be priced accurately is a risk they may decline, which leaves you choosing among whoever was willing to guess.
This tool reviews the completeness of a request for quotation. It is not legal or contractual advice, does not constitute a compliance review, and the generated language is a starting point to be adapted to your organisation's terms and reviewed by the people who own them.
