Woodlands Hospital subscribes to a fair and transparent bidding process for all purchases made.
We strive to bring value and to develop robust relationships with our Suppliers to ensure a strong pipeline of goods and services.
There are three general types of Requests:
Request for Information (RFI)
An RFI is generally used to gather market information about products or services.
An RFI may or may not lead to activation of an RFQ/ RFP.
Suppliers are to submit their information in response to our RFIs via the same channel of enquiry.
Request for Quotation (RFQ)
Suppliers may submit their quotations via email or stipulated channels to the requestors as stated in the RFQ document.
Request for Proposal (RFP)
Suppliers have to submit their proposals via the stipulated channels in RFP documents.
Late submissions will not be accepted.
We use the electronic sourcing platform, Source Key by SESAMi, and Ariba Discovery to conduct our open RFIs, RFQs and RFPs.
