Online Submissions Overview
Authorium’s Online Submissions & Evaluations system helps public sector teams manage competitive procurement processes end-to-end—from receiving bids from external suppliers to reviewing and scoring them internally. These features are structured into two workflow stages that can be added to any project template.
Online Submissions Stage​
This stage allows suppliers to submit proposals, respond to required documents, and participate in Q&A before the evaluation process begins.
