RFI Automatic Scoring

In this release, we are pleased to announce the introduction of the Automatic Scoring feature for RFI Scoring. This new feature enables purchasers to automatically score certain question types, including Single Choice, Multiple Choice, and Number, based on a configurable matrix. The Automatic Scoring feature can be enabled or disabled for the entire RFI, with the default setting being disabled. Additionally, purchasers have the flexibility to enable or disable automatic scoring on a per-question basis. It is important to note that question types such as Text, File Upload, Currency, and Date Selection will not be automatically scored, but they will still be available for manual evaluation.

Capacity limits worksheet

We've added a valuable feature to the Bid Analysis report – now, you can effortlessly view capacity limits per bidder organization. To see the Capacity limits worksheet in the Bid analysis report, Capacity limits must be toggled on in the Event Settings. When Capacity Limits is disabled, the Capacity Limits sheet will not appear in the Bid Analysis report.
