FAQ

We already use spreadsheets for RFPs.

Spreadsheets cause rework and inconsistencies; Vendorbench templates standardize criteria and exports for repeatable RFP processes.

Is RFP scoring too subjective?

Vendorbench provides standardized rubrics and math to make scores defensible across teams.

Does it support government-specific compliance?

Customize templates to your policies; this is an internal evaluation tool, not a compliance certification.

Will this involve contacting vendors?

No, it's an internal workflow for procurement teams—no vendor outreach.
