Is it possible to send a request to a new supplier after it has been already submitted?

Yes. You do not need to cancel or restart a sourcing event to include more participants. Tradogram allows you to invite additional suppliers to an active request at any time during the bidding process.

How to Invite Additional Suppliers

To expand your sourcing event, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the Request Listing overview page.
  1. Click on the active request you wish to modify.
  2. Select the “Invite another supplier” option.

What the New Supplier Receives

The newly invited supplier will receive an automated email invitation containing a secure link to the request.

  • Consistency: The request form sent to the new supplier will include the exact same criteria, line items, and terms that were originally submitted to the other suppliers in the event.
  • Evaluation: Once the new supplier submits their bid, their offer will appear alongside the original participants in your comparison tools (such as "Compare Items" or "TCO Evaluation").
