Request for Quotes (RFQs)

Efficient
Once a part is found, members will receive a list of companies that carry the required part, in varying quantities. The member then has the option to select some or all of the companies to receive the RFQ.

Settings
An interested buyer can create and complete an RFQ application online, including managing the settings of an RFQ such as Terms and Notes. Once completed, an RFQ message is simultaneously sent via the internet to the selected companies.

Immediate Follow-up
Immediate follow-up of an RFQ is necessary for Brokers and Distributors to stay competitive. As such, our service includes that one of our Broker Forum representatives will fax the RFQ to the seller should the interested buyer not receive a response within 2 hours.
