SAFAL Strategic Sourcing is a web platform for enterprise procurement teams managing supplier evaluation, negotiations, and award decisions. It supports RFI, RFQ, RFP, and eTender events, sealed or open bidding, reverse eAuctions, and multi-round sourcing. Teams can use weighted technical and commercial evaluations, AI-powered bid comparisons, award recommendations, and approval workflows. Negotiation management tracks counter-offers and bid history. Savings can be measured against a prior purchase price, a budget, or a market benchmark. Awarded outcomes can flow into contract creation or purchase-order generation. SAFAL lists integrations with SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and Navision, plus REST APIs, webhooks, versioned endpoints, and connectors for integration services. The company describes controls including OAuth 2.0, role-based API scopes, IP whitelisting, VPNs, private endpoints, and end-to-end audit trails. It is designed for complex procurement, including industrial and project-based sourcing. SAFAL is headquartered in Ahmedabad, India, and supports enterprise procurement teams across India, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Oman. Pricing is available by request, not as a published plan price.
