Requesting best and final offer

 
Maybe two scenarios that either you will negotiate back and forth to get the best price from your vendor or you may just ask for the vendor to give you a best and final offer. You can also do both.
iSpec allows you to request a best and final offer from your vendor easily by setting your parameters and clicking a single button in the vendor cost calculator.
To request a best and final offer open the vendor cost calculator.
 
 
Select your pricing document.
 
 
Select the Request best and final offer button.
 
 
Set the parameters as defined:
 
Scope:
  • Apply to this vendor only - Applies only to the selector vendor shown in the Vendor cost calculator.
  • Apply to all shortlisted vendors - Applies to all your shortlisted vendors
 
Accepted items:
  • Applies only to items that have not been accepted - Will only apply to headings where the internal user has not accepted the item.
  • Apply to all items - Applies to all headings whether the internal user has accepted the item or not.
 
Include:
  • Applies only to included items - Applies to only items the user has included in the Vendor cost calculator.
  • Applies to all items - Applies to all items the user has included or excluded in the Vendor cost calculator.
 
Reset prices:
  • Reset prices to 0 - Will reset all the prices in the pricing document to 0.
  • Leave prices intact - Will leave the prices as they currently are in the pricing document.
     
     
 
 
Once you have request the final offer the prices will be reset in the vendor cost calculator.
 
 
The pricing document will also reset the unit and total costs and show the text in the pricing response section.
 
 
The vendor can then enter the best price for that item.
