Request Bid Updates

Suppliers submit bids on your event.
You can request bid updates from your suppliers. Bid updates are helpful when:
  • Suppliers misinterpret requirements or provide incorrect information.
  • A supplier needs to make edits after the bid submission deadline.
  • You'd like to do a modified best-and-final round from a select group of suppliers.
In your request, you can also write a note to your suppliers, attach documents, and provide a timeline specific to the request.
