CombineNet ASAP^®: Sourcing Event Management

CombineNet ASAP® for advanced sourcing provides a collection of event management features that allows buyers to manage every stage of their sourcing event, supporting enterprise-wide strategic sourcing initiatives.

After creating a sourcing event, either through CombineNet ASAP's RFxpress Wizard or through one of our sourcing category template solutions, our event management capabilities ensure the entire process is streamlined and easily managed.

With our easy-to-use interface, ASAP's sourcing event management helps buyers:

• Initiate new sourcing events in 4 easy steps with our Event Quick Launch wizard
• Assign buyers and buying teams
• Set bidding rounds and event timelines
• Create supplier gating options
• Invite suppliers to participate
• Communicate with suppliers through event notices and FAQs
• Monitor supplier registration, gating, and bidding progress
• Provide Expressive Feedback to guide supplier bidding
• Make updates to in-progress sourcing events to collect new/additional information (rather than having to start over with a new event)

CombineNet ASAP's event management features help sourcing teams spend less time managing the day-to-day bidding process and more time on strategic sourcing activities.
