Material suppliers lose deals over three gaps

Slow spec interpretation

RFQs arrive with 100s of pages, forcing reps to spend hours digging through tables and criteria just to understand requirements, while faster competitors send quotes first.

Missed opportunities

Upsell and cross-sell options hide in the spec language. Alternates are allowed but rarely proposed, and high-value SKUs that already meet specs stay off the quote because no one spots the fit.

Reps going in blind

Sales teams respond to RFQs without clarity on obligations or competitive positioning, making it difficult to build credibility, impress GCs and subcontractors, or call proactively with a strong point of view.
The result
Slower quotes, lower win rates, and revenue left in every project file.

Two AI-powered tools that help your sales team win more work
