Specifications include, but are not limited to: In seeking solutions to mitigate some of these challenges, UTA is requesting proposals from qualified Firms to structure an automated requisition-to-Purchase Order quote processing program. UTA utilizes an ERP system for its’ vehicle repair-parts inventory which calculates reorder points and automatically releases a requisition when inventory levels fall below the reorder point. The goal of this initiative is to select a Firm to provide and implement a software system that will process daily requisitions into Request For Quotes (RFQ), send the RFQs to multiple suppliers (from previous purchases and/or from the Firm’s database of suppliers), manage the quotes from multiple bidders, provide a summary of quotes received, and process the quote into a Purchase Order once the buyer has made the purchase decision. UTA’s desire with this system is to reduce the current workload of routine purchases so Buyers are able to allocate more time to value-add activities.
