What does VEXORS cover across industries?

VEXORS runs structured sourcing for seven industries from one platform: construction and contracting, manufacturing, trading, distribution, energy, chemicals, and packaging. Every request runs the same way regardless of what is being bought: a buyer publishes a structured requirement instead of an email, in construction a full BoQ package, in the others an RFQ, RFP, or RFI, bidders respond on the same lines, AI levels and evaluates every bid with reasons attached, and the award and its record stay with the request. Only the requirement changes; the workflow does not.

One structured request, not an inbox

Whether it is a BoQ package, a materials RFQ, or an RFI for prequalification, the requirement goes out once, in one structure, to every bidder you invite or to the open tender directory, so nothing depends on who forwarded which email to whom.

Bids come back on your lines

Every bidder answers the same items, the same units, the same terms, so a construction BoQ, a chemical spec, or a packaging drawing produces bids that line up against each other instead of five documents that each define the requirement differently.

AI evaluates, the record stays

Unpriced lines are counted, unusual rates are flagged against the median, terms exceptions are costed, and every bid is scored with a reason beside it. The award stays your decision, with named approvals and the full history kept on the request.

In practice

Three ways industries source on VEXORS

Construction, on Scale

A BoQ split into trade packages, levelled and awarded

On the Scale plan, a main contractor imports the client's bill of quantities and splits it into trade packages: structural steel, MEP, façade, finishes, each with its own bidder list and its own drawings attached. Quotations return in the BoQ's own structure, so a package with forty bidders is as comparable as one with four. Unpriced items are priced back in before ranking, an unusual rate is flagged against the median of the other bids, and AI scores every bid against the contractor's weighted criteria before the award is made and recorded package by package.

  • The BoQ imported once, split into trade packages with drawings attached
  • Bids return in the buyer's own structure, comparable on the same lines
  • Unpriced items priced back in before bids are ranked
  • AI scores every bid and recommends, package by package
Manufacturing, energy & chemicals

A request that carries its own documents

A pump package needs a datasheet; a resin RFQ needs a certificate of analysis; an energy RFI needs HSE certifications before a vendor is even allowed to bid. VEXORS attaches drawings, specifications, and required documents to the request itself, and a questionnaire captures the certificates a supplier must hold before pricing. Every bidder answers the same specification, a clarification is published to all of them at once, and a bid priced against an old revision is flagged automatically, so a document mismatch never reaches the comparison.

  • Drawings, datasheets, and certificates required travel with the request itself
  • A questionnaire captures certifications before a supplier can price
  • A clarification is answered once and published to every bidder
  • A bid priced against an old specification or revision is flagged
Trading & distribution

Compared on landed cost, reissued on a schedule

A trader or distributor buys the same categories on a cycle: restock a SKU this month, the same SKU again next quarter. VEXORS compares offers on landed cost, not the headline unit price, because Incoterm, pack size, and lead time are structured fields on every bid, not a note buried in an email. A request that runs on a schedule saves as a template, so the next cycle takes minutes, and a second source stays qualified for the SKUs that cannot go out of stock.

  • Incoterm, pack size, and lead time compared as structured fields, not a footnote
  • Landed cost ranks the bids, not the unit price alone
  • A recurring restock reissues from a saved template in minutes
  • A qualified second source stays on the bench for SKUs that cannot go out of stock

Who runs sourcing on VEXORS, by industry

Main contractors & subcontractors

Price the client's BoQ package by package, level every bid, and submit a tender you can stand behind.

Manufacturers & industrial buyers

Source BOM materials, components, and MRO against drawings and certificates, and dual-source the parts the line cannot run out of.

Traders & distributors

Widen the supplier base, buy and sell from one dual-role account, and compare every offer on landed cost.

Energy, chemicals & packaging teams

Prequalify vendors, publish a spec once, and keep an award trail built for the audit that will come.

How it works

From requirement to award, in four steps

1

Pick your request type

A construction BoQ package on Scale, or an RFQ, RFP, or RFI for anything else, sourcing invited bidders or the open directory.

2

Publish once, invite everyone

Attach drawings, specs, and certificates to the request itself, and invite your own suppliers or the open tender directory.

3

Bids come back comparable

Every bidder answers the same lines and the same spec, so nothing needs reconciling before it can be compared.

4

AI evaluates, you award

Every bid levelled and scored with reasons attached; the award stays your decision, with named approvals on the record.

Structured RFQs, RFPs and RFIs, AI evaluation with levelling and rate checks, clarifications and the record run on every plan, including the free Explore plan, with the AI credits each plan includes. Questionnaires, saved templates, approval workflows and the construction BoQ workflow are part of the Scale plan.
