Scanmarket eRFx review
A web-based sourcing suite for structured supplier events, evaluation and audit reporting.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Scanmarket eRFx is cloud-based source-to-contract software from Unit4 for procurement teams managing RFI, RFP and RFQ events. It supports event design, supplier distribution, response collection, bid evaluation and reporting. Suppliers participate through individual logins on a shared tender platform, while sourcing teams can manage prequalification, shortlisting, supplier communication and participation status. The product is suited to organizations running strategic sourcing events, tenders and tactical RFQs, particularly where structured evaluation and auditability matter.
Pricing follows a contact-sales model, so buying starts with a conversation rather than a self-serve checkout. The core workflow covers reusable and customizable templates, automated reminders, supplier messaging, qualitative and quantitative response collection, and status monitoring. Its strongest functional depth is in evaluation: teams can apply weighted supplier scoring, compare responses side by side, build sourcing scenarios and perform advanced comparison calculations. Excel reporting, PDF event reports and audit logs extend the workflow from analysis into documentation.
Scanmarket eRFx is a focused choice for mature sourcing teams that need one environment for complex supplier events and formal bid analysis. Its supplier portal, template library and scoring tools support repeatable processes across different event types. Web-only access keeps the platform centered on browser-based collaboration, while the product’s scope stays concentrated on sourcing rather than broader procurement administration. Organizations seeking detailed RFI, RFP and RFQ management should consider it; teams primarily needing general purchasing, contract administration or a lightweight request tool may prefer a more broadly oriented alternative.
