AuraVMS is a tool for managing Requests for Quotations (RFQs). It allows buyers to send requests to multiple suppliers via email or WhatsApp and collect responses in a standardized format to help make pricing and term comparisons more consistent.
The software is designed for small to mid-sized businesses and larger enterprises. It supports the procurement workflow from creating the initial request to awarding the order and monitoring supplier performance.
Buyers should note that while basic quote collection is available on lower plans, features such as data exports, document attachments, and AI-driven savings insights are available on the Medium and Enterprise tiers.
For organizations with specific security requirements, the tool offers an on-premise deployment option, allowing the software to run on the company's own servers independently.
