Integrated Digital Tender Process
Overview of the revolutionary full digital procurement process:
All stages are processed digitally between the parties involved. This not only simplifies the process, but also shortens it by a month
Process Flow (3/3)
Step 1: During pre-tendering, all required data is loaded onto the platform and classified according to value-base. Doctors/nurses can then digitally specify their product and service requirements, in a manufacturer-neutral manner. Result: EU-compliant service specifications that can be seamlessly processed in the next step.
Step 2: The legal EU-compliant tendering process takes place: eliminating the need to exchange hundreds of emails and documents, or engage in time-consuming coordination activities between involved parties. Everything takes place on a closed and highly secure digital platform.
Step 3: Post-tendering/order process step: the awarded companies and their products are seamlessly transferred to the digital trading platform.

Digital Tender Tool - live insights
In the following screenshots, we will provide you with a live insight into our Digital Tender Tool, from data generation to the trading platform.
Basic functionality is provided by our tech partner, Mercell Netherlands (former Negometrix).
It all starts with the composition of the team and the allocation of roles
Simplified access to tender information for all stakeholders. A single point of truth for your tenders.
Overview of the contents
Various ways to collaborate on specification, evaluation and answering questions.
The system takes care of time-consuming paperwork, with the help of templates.
Digital Tender Specification: Example Surgical mask FFP 2
Creating tenders with our new innovative 'Digi Tender Specs Tool' is like choosing the specs for a new car.
Based on our database of over 10.000.000 product classifications, medical users/doctors can access numerous product criteria from scientific, evidence-based studies.
They then use our online tool to click on the essential/optional criteria, and assign quality points.
The vendor-neutral product description - which forms the core element of the technical tender specification - is then ready.
A process which used to take 2-3 months, and was not scientifically validated, now takes just a few days. And the best thing about it? It is avaiable to all the hospitals in Europe and beyond: this is just the beginning.

Digital Tender Specification 2/2: From classification to technical specification, including a doctor´s rating scheme
The data classification forms the basis.
We then augment these classifications with additional evaluation criteria.
They then use an online tool to click on the essential/optional criteria, and assign quality points.
Doctors evaluate the product with essential and optional evaluation points.
This results in an objective, value-for-money cost-benefit overview. In other words: a value based procurement result, created by doctors.
Question & Answer area
Anyone who has ever been responsible for a medical tender will appreciate this functionality.
It is not unusual for the bidders to ask hundreds of questions. These are then passed on to the consultants and medical experts involved and answered. In the spirit of non-discrimination, all bidders must be informed of this. It can turn into a nightmare of detailed, organisational work which is extremely time-consuming and cost-intensive.
Our process solves this functionality in a simple way
Evaluation Phase
After all questions have been clarified, the evaluation begins - also fully digitally - on the basis of the criteria defined in the tender documents.
Each bidder can follow the progress of the evaluation at all times. This saves considerable time and resources, by eliminating the constant inquiries from bidders.
Result
The evaluation and presentation of results is fully digitalised and complies with European tender legislation.
Award/non award letters
Finally, the corresponding letters - rejection or award - are created and announced on the platform.
Final Stage
The data of the tendered and awarded products are automatically transferred to the trading platform and the products can now be ordered on the platform. Read more
