Vendor and Bid Manager
The Vendor and Bid Manager module is a feature rich product that is designed to empower your organization to organize, publish, and maintain bid information. One of the biggest values of the Vendor and Bid Manager module is that it centralizes the bid management process. The Bid Administrator manages all the bid information. This allows the Vendor and Bid Manager to create and publish bids to the Internet. Once bids are posted, vendors can view and download bid information. Interested vendors are also notified of any bid changes via emails. This eliminates the manual printing process that is normally incurred.
