How do I bid on a reverse auction?

Create a proposal

To submit a bid you first create a proposal by clicking on the Create Proposal button at the top of the screen when viewing a Request.

You fill out the Proposal form as for a non-auction Request.

You can collaborate with colleagues on drafting your Proposal by sharing the Request with them and messaging in the private Comments internal channel.

 When you want to check your Proposal you can view it in the Preview and the Comparator views.

If you need to communicate directly with a client contact person before submitting your bid, or during the reverse auction process, you can message them through the private Comments external channel in the Request.

When you are happy with your bid details click Submit to participate in the auction.

You can revise your Total Price during the reverse auction. If you wish to revise any of the Proposal details you can Copy the Proposal and submit multiple bids if you wish to offer a number of options.

You can Withdraw a Proposal at any stage before it is accepted.
