Can HublerX handle custom or bespoke product RFQs, not just standard SKUs?

For custom formulations, HublerX uses the closest comparable standard SKU as the basis for the capacity and material estimate, and flags the custom elements — formulation development, trials, regulatory approval — as additional lead time items for the commercial team to assess. The feasibility check is not fully automatic for customs, but HublerX structures the information the planner needs to make the assessment.

Can HublerX submit responses to government e-tender portals?

HublerX generates the quote data and documentation. Where a government tender requires submission through a specific portal — GeM, CPPP, or state-level portals — the quote is exported in the required format for the sales coordinator to submit. Direct API integration with government portals is available for select platforms on request.

How does HublerX handle RFQs that require price negotiation across multiple rounds?

HublerX tracks each quote revision in the RFQ record — original quote, revised quote, final accepted price. Where a revision is needed, the commercial director adjusts the price in HublerX and the revised quote is routed for re-approval. The full negotiation history is visible against the RFQ record.

When an RFQ is won and converts to a sales order, how does the capacity reservation work?

When the commercial team marks an RFQ as won in HublerX, the confirmed quantity and delivery date are used to create a sales order in the ERP. The production planner is notified to schedule the corresponding work orders — using the capacity assessment from the RFQ as the planning basis. The capacity is reserved in the production plan from the moment the order is confirmed.

RFQ Response Automation

HublerX assembles the data needed to respond to an RFQ — available capacity, raw material availability, lead time, and cost — automatically, so the sales team can quote in hours rather than spending two days chasing information across departments.
