Supplier contract deadline tracking

90 days' notice on every deadline

Research by World Commerce & Contracting with Deloitte, covering more than 1,200 organisations, estimates that 8.6% of contract value erodes after signature for lack of follow-up on commitments and deadlines. A missed automatic renewal costs 10 to 15% more than terms renegotiated in time, and the information sits in spreadsheets and shared calendars.

Supplier bid comparison and scoring

Comparing commercial proposals that differ in format and scope first means making them comparable. Buyers spend hours copying data into a common spreadsheet, and the real weighting of criteria shifts from one file to the next depending on who handles it.

-60% response time

Automated tender responses

The Loopio and APMP benchmark puts the average response to a tender at 25 hours of work, and between 15 and 70 hours depending on complexity. Three tasks absorb most of that effort: searching past answers, chasing internal experts and formatting, leaving little room for the commercial argument itself.

Continuous supplier evaluation

Supplier evaluation usually relies on an annual review that bears little relation to the past twelve months of operations. Early warning signs, repeated delays, slipping quality, financial strain, show up in the data well before the review, and the incident happens in between.
