Module 3 of 9 - Using Nvelop

The RFX tab and its 7 sub-sections

What this module covers

The RFX tab's sub-sections - RFP Overview, Questions to Vendors, Pricing, Terms and Conditions, Requirements, Evaluation Criteria, and Attachments.

Why this matters

A well-built RFX here is what makes the later Evaluation step meaningful - vague requirements or missing evaluation criteria upfront mean messier, harder-to-compare vendor responses later.

Step by step

Step 5 of 8

Terms & Conditions

Terms and Conditions lets you upload your own documents (button: "Upload T&C") instead of starting blank - the screen shows "No T&C documents uploaded yet" until you do.

Step 6 of 8

Requirements

Requirements are split into Functional and Non-Functional tabs (example split: 6 functional / 12 non-functional), each with Process/ID, Description, Owner, and Status - filterable by Priority, Status, and Assignee, with a 'Set all to: Edited' bulk action.

Evaluation Criteria is a weighted table - example weights: Price 40%, Solution 40%, Terms and Conditions 10%, ESG (partial weighting shown).
