Aestiva Adds Full-Featured RFQ Software to Product Lineup

TORRANCE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aestiva has introduced a new web-based software product, Aestiva RFQ, which lets companies automate the Request-to-Order business process. Aestiva RFQ records incoming RFQs, sends outbound RFQs to suppliers, provides quotes back to customers, and posts incoming orders.

With Aestiva RFQ, companies gain corporate-wide visibility and control of their RFQ process – plus the ability to transact more RFQ business, faster, and more efficiently. Instant access to information on any RFQ, customer quote, or order is just a few mouse clicks away.

Additional options available with Aestiva RFQ include:

• An RFQ Portal that lets companies issue "invites" to a web site where suppliers complete and submit quotes – saving turn-around times, and lowering buyer workloads.
• Integrated Purchase Order Management
• Tools to generate invoices, outbound packing slips, and other related documents.

Aestiva RFQ also offers fast and easy customization and exchange of data with external Sales, CRM, ERP, Supply Chain and financial software packages.

Installed on standard servers, Aestiva RFQ, requires no special desktop software, and is highly scalable for deployment in global enterprises using minimal IT resources. Users can access the application via the Internet or Intranet from any browser (Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox, Opera, and others) running on any end-user computer operating system (Windows, Apple Mac OS, Linux).
