Whether browsing a catalog, awarding a proposal or participating in a reverse auction, traditional procurement systems fail to address the challenge of selecting the optimal solution in a best value sourcing situation. TSA's Bid Evaluation Service delivers the first and only true expert assisted, multi-criteria, tradeoff based, real-time selection system.
Every purchase is optimized by capturing the experts' knowledge by TSA's bid evaluation solution, and sharing it across the organization, thus raising the decision making ability level of the entire organization to that of the expert.
In addition, TSA's Bid Evaluation Service supercharges traditional procurement systems by integrating the ability to compare products or portfolios that are not necessarily identical. Finally, enhancing the transparency of the selection process results in a dramatic reduction of protests. Instead of bidding on price only, your suppliers compete on all the criteria you care about, thus delivering the best value for each purchase. TSA's small technology breakthrough delivers a giant leap in savings to procurement organizations.
