TenderLink

Blind competitive tender workflow

Run structured, blind competitive tenders for food-grade materials. Live ranking, benchmark bands, split awards, and full audit trail. Award concluded offline between buyer and supplier.

How TenderLink works

Create your tender

Define the material, quantity, period, benchmark band, and bid window. Invite specific approved suppliers or open to broader participation.

Suppliers bid blind

Suppliers see only their own bid and ranking position. They cannot see competitor identities or bids. Benchmark band is visible to guide pricing.

Award and conclude

Review all bids with full visibility. Award single, split, or reserve. Generate award communications. Conclude the contract offline.
