Search Negotiations in Supplier Portal with a New User Experience

Suppliers can search for negotiations in a modern and simplified user experience in a redwood page. When accessed from the Supplier Portal task menu: View Negotiations, suppliers are presented with all open negotiations by default.

Suppliers can use the search filters to find all open or closed negotiations. Under open negotiations, they can further filter based on whether they responded or not. The closed filter provides them quick access to their awarded negotiations, and negotiations that are still pending award. They can also filter for negotiations where they received new messages.

Using the actions menu, invited suppliers can easily acknowledge their participation in the negotiations where they have been invited to.

Acknowledge participation in the negotiation

This enriched search experience helps supplier bidders more easily find and access negotiations (including public sector and negotiation of all statuses).

Tips And Considerations

Accessing negotiations using the infolet URLs from the Supplier Portal landing page and watchlist quick search will continue to navigate to the old search page until these are converted to Redwood in the future.
