Compare offers and award a winner
Read the comparison sheet, evaluate fairly and award with a clean audit trail.
When suppliers respond, every offer lands on a single Comparison Sheet — items down the side, suppliers across the top. This guide explains how to read it, evaluate fairly, and award with a clean audit trail.
Read the comparison sheet
Each cell shows a supplier's unit price for an item. The lowest compliant price in every row is highlighted, and the savings pill shows the delta against your budget or the previous best.
Best price isn't always best value
A green 'best' marker flags the lowest price — but check lead time, warranty and compliance before you award. Weighted scoring surfaces the best overall value, not just the cheapest line.
Evaluate side by side
Use the interactive comparison below: review three suppliers, see the running savings, and select a winner. The award action is disabled until any blocking flags (like an outstanding technical confirmation) are cleared.
Awarding a winner
Resolve any flags
Clear outstanding technical confirmations or rejected items first — Teradix blocks the award until the offer is clean.
Select the winning offer
Choose award for the whole event or split the award line-by-line across suppliers.
Confirm and notify
Add an award note for the record, confirm, and the winner and non-winners are notified automatically.
Raise the PO
Convert the awarded offer straight into a draft Purchase Order — no re-keying.
Awards are auditable and final
Once confirmed, an award is recorded with the user, timestamp and note. Re-opening an event after award requires an admin and is logged — so review carefully before you confirm.
