Use PROEBIZ to the full with the help of our Assistance Programme
The Assistance Program (AP) supports eAuction users in how to successfully organise a tender for a given commodity or service by answering questions such as which strategy to use for eAuction negotiations, which type of eAuction to choose, how to formulate a tender and when it is appropriate to use an eAuction. On behalf of a client we can check the settings of a tender and that the suppliers are logged in, and monitor it from beginning to end. Another feature is the provision of access to eAuction templates and the catalogue of suppliers. The Assistance Program is the best way to increase the effectiveness of eAuctions for those customers who are interested in carrying out a higher number of eAuctions and inquiries.
The Assistance Program is a premium service paid for annually depending on the number of administrators and the number of tenders. The costs related to it are usually recouped straight away with the first eAuction.
The Assistance Program utilises support specialists from HOUSTON as well as frontline experts from our client teams and partner network.
