At CapacityTrader.com buyers are able to post their RFQs, complete with drawings for suppliers to quote on immediately without leaving their own desks.
There are also a variety of search options for buyers to explore, that make finding new suppliers child's play.
Following the introduction of new personnel and funding, CapacityTrader.com are taking their proven business generating tool to a new level.
Buyers are invited to make use of this unique sourcing tool, and in just a few clicks can have their RFQs in front of a wide range of new suppliers from the engineering sector.
For those more urgent projects, buyers are able to search through suppliers able to offer immediate spare capacity.
The sophistication of the site allows both buyers and suppliers to communicate with each other, within the sites' own internal messaging system.
This has the advantage of not clogging up your own email and telephone systems as well as allowing you to deal with these opportunities within your own time.
A guiding principle of CapacityTrader.com is the ease of use for all members, so whilst the site exhibits great levels of complexity you don't need to an "IT guru" to benefit from it.
Engineering projects are typically made up of lots of smaller packages of work, being brought together by a main contractor.
CapacityTrader.com is an ideal tool for this environment, allowing buyers to upload drawings and specifications just once.
They are then available to multiple suppliers that have been pre screened to ensure that they have the skills needed to fulfil your supply needs.
The internal bid tool allows buyers to do their preliminary screening of suppliers in one easy to use place.
One of CapacityTrader.com's early successes sums up his benefits of using the service in a very succinct way:"I don't have a lot of time to review the market so I uploaded my requirements to CapacityTrader.com it only took a couple of minutes_I know the companies are all quality checked so I felt safe that I would only be approached by the right sort of company", said Rob Smith, Director of Quickits.
