The use case

From sourcing event to signed contract. In days, not quarters.

Procurement teams running RFQs that drag on for weeks — suppliers chased over email, evaluation in spreadsheets, bid comparison done in PowerPoint, contract handed off to legal in PDF.

Flowie publishes events to your supplier network in minutes, captures structured responses, AI evaluates across cost / quality / risk / delivery / ESG, surfaces the winners, and routes to a contract that lives in your CLM. Same platform, end to end.

For who

CPO / Strategic Sourcing
Quarterly RFP cycle. Suppliers don't respond on time.
Category Manager
Bid comparison in spreadsheets. No clean savings story.
Procurement Operations
Onboarding new suppliers takes longer than the RFP itself.
CFO / Finance
Negotiated savings never materialize in actual spend.

Customer voice

What teams running on Sourcing say.

We cut our sourcing cycle from 6 weeks to 10 days. The AI evaluation alone saves our team 20 hours per event — no more spreadsheet tournaments, no more weighting debates after the fact. Suppliers get scored objectively against the criteria we set up front.

Supplier discovery is the unlock for us. We used to source from the same 200 vendors out of habit. The 600M+ network surfaced 47 qualified bidders we'd never engaged for our last MRO event. Two of them won — and they're 14% under our incumbent.

Category management was where the savings story died — too much manual work just to get a clean RFQ out the door. Now I run 3 sourcing events a week and actually have time for strategy. Average savings hit 12.4% last quarter.

Asked & answered

Buyers ask us this.

How long does it take to run our first sourcing event?

Most teams publish their first RFQ within a week. We provide templates for common categories and help configure evaluation criteria during onboarding.

Can we integrate with our existing supplier database?

Yes. Flowie imports your supplier master data from any ERP or spreadsheet. Existing suppliers are matched against the network automatically.

How does AI evaluation handle complex multi-criteria scoring?

You define weighted criteria (cost, quality, risk, delivery, sustainability). AI scores each bid objectively, flags anomalies, and ranks suppliers — but final decisions are always yours.
