Founding cohort — 7 spots remaining

Your procurement lives inemail threads and Excel.There's a better way.

Most teams only get 1–2 quotes per RFQ because chasing a third supplier by email isn't worth the hassle. In our own usage, quotes on the same line item vary by 21.9% on average — money left on the table on every purchase. ProcFlow makes it as easy to compare five suppliers as one.

No credit card. No commitment. We'll walk you through it personally.

01 / The hidden cost of manual procurement

Inbox chaos

/01

Supplier quotes arrive in different formats, different inboxes, different threads. Nothing is comparable.

47%of quotes require manual reformatting

Specs get lost

/02

Suppliers quote on the wrong version. Drawings don't make it through email. Clarifications take days.

3.2average revision rounds per RFQ

Money left on the table

/03

Chasing a third supplier by email isn't worth the hassle, so most teams stop at one or two quotes — and never see what they overpaid.

21.9%avg. gap between cheapest and average quote

Production waits

/04

Every day your RFQ sits unanswered is a day your production line doesn't have parts.

4.7days average quote turnaround

Coupa is overkill

/05

Enterprise software takes 6 months to implement, costs $100k+ in year one, and has 500 features you'll never use.

$100k+year one implementation cost

Excel breaks at scale

/06

Your comparison spreadsheet works for 3 suppliers. At 10, it's a liability. At 30 RFQs/month, it's chaos.

but it doesn't have to be this way

There's a version of this where your team sends an RFQ in 3 minutes and gets quotes back — organized, comparable, audit-ready — by tomorrow morning.
