RFQ
Requisition to controlled RFQNormalize vessel demand, line items, makers and delivery ports — then release multi-supplier RFQs with full commercial terms.
MarineDesk AI connects vessel requisitions, shore review, sourcing, intelligent comparison, purchase orders, shipping documents and invoices in one governed multi-tenant workspace.
End-to-end workflow
Maritime procurement is not a single form. MarineDesk AI keeps every stage connected: requisition, sourcing, award, delivery and close-out.
Normalize vessel demand, line items, makers and delivery ports — then release multi-supplier RFQs with full commercial terms.
Suppliers respond through a secure portal. Quotations, attachments and clarifications land against the same RFQ — no inbox archaeology.
Compare price, lead time, compliance and supplier evidence line by line. Recommendations stay explainable — confidence, sources and data gaps included.
Split awards when needed, route approvals, and issue traceable POs. AI assists; people decide.
Connect packing lists, commercial invoices, voyage and port data so delivery coordination stays with the procurement thread.
Proforma and final invoices stay linked to the PO and shipment — so finance and technical teams share one source of truth.
