Boundaries by design

The buyer sees the whole decision. Suppliers see only their response.

Supplier isolation

Each invitation is scoped to one RFQ. Competitor pricing and buyer-only notes stay out of the supplier view.

Approval before award

Required approvals are recorded before the final award can be completed.

One durable record

Clarifications, submissions, comments, and the final reason belong to the RFQ record.
