How a tender moves through Tendered.

The tender arrives

Upload the shipper's Excel or take it from Google Drive. Every lane, column and remark is read — nothing lost, nothing re-typed.

You set who decides, and what it prices on

Give each person the access they should have — see it, price it, approve it. Then choose which of your pricing models this tender answers on, and how far it reaches: this customer, these corridors, these lanes.

Ted prepares your answer

Prices start from yours: your past quotes, the loads you have run, your rules. Every lane shows the calculation behind its price.

Your team decides

Ted proposes; your pricers review, adjust and approve. Nothing is sent on its own.

The file goes back complete

Your answers are written into the shipper's original Excel — layout and formulas untouched, ready to return.

The next round starts from this one

When the shipper comes back, the tender opens with your previous answers and their feedback side by side — reprice with the first round's insight, repeat the workflow.

Ted works on every tender with you.

He reads the whole file, is built for road transport, and works as a proposal: your team accepts or changes what he puts forward.

Questions answered from the tender

He reads the whole file, including the instruction and condition tabs. Ask what a column expects, when the answer is due, or what the shipper requires on a lane, and the answer comes with the place in the file it was read from.

Every price shows what it rests on

A suggested price names its source: your rate card, the loads you have run before, or a computed estimate identified as an estimate. Where your data supports no price, he asks you.

Built for road transport

He has read the CMR convention and keeps up with the driver and mobility rules of the regions he covers, so equipment, weights and rest rules are part of how he reads a lane.

Kept per customer

The way a shipper builds the file, the way you fill it, and the reasoning behind your prices stay with that customer. The next round starts from there.

Their file, returned complete

Answers are written into the file the shipper sent, in the places it asks for them, with their layout and formulas intact.

Your structure, respected

You set who sees rates, who prices which lanes, and who approves. Ted proposes inside those limits, across every office.

Answer every tender worth winning.

The work between a tender arriving and your answer going back — reading the file, filling every column, returning it in their own format — runs as one workflow. Your team decides; the retyping is gone.
