About the service
When a buyer sends a price request to multiple suppliers, answers come in disarray: someone writes the price directly in the email, someone attaches a PDF, someone fills out a form on the website. Then someone from the procurement department opens each email, looks for the price, delivery time, payment terms, and manually transfers it all into one table — only then can offers be compared. This step takes time, and it's where errors most often occur: one incorrectly transferred number from a PDF can cost the company real money.
I set up automation that removes this step entirely. As soon as a supplier's response arrives — in any format they chose — the system extracts the price, delivery time, quantity, and terms from it and adds a row to the unified comparison table that the buyer sees. The table recalculates itself as offers come in, ranks suppliers by each criterion, and highlights the best offer — a comparison that used to take half a day now takes a couple of minutes. I connect the processing to the channel from which the buyer already collects offers, and set up rules for what counts as "best" for this specific purchase, since the lowest price doesn't always mean the best offer.
What's included in the work:
— parsing supplier responses from emails, PDF attachments, and web forms
— unified table with price, delivery time, and terms for each supplier
— automatic highlighting of the best offer for each column and overall
— notification if an offer hasn't arrived on time or is missing by the deadline
