For Buyers

Source faster. Pay less. Track every saved dollar.

QuickSource is built for Australian buyers who keep re-ordering the same items every week and want to stop wondering whether they are still getting the best price.

The repeat-purchase problem

Buyers keep re-ordering the same things, but they do not know if they are still getting the best price. The incumbent sends a quarterly statement showing a "10% loyalty discount" — comforting, until you re-quote and discover the market is 18% below their list. Multiply that by every category and every year, and the silent overspend on consumables, materials and facilities supplies is real money.

How QuickSource fixes it

Save a quote template per category — packaging, cleaning, PPE, paper, fuel, food service items — and re-run with one click.
Invite approved suppliers by email and SMS without forcing them to install or learn anything new.
Run a fixed-window quick quote or a live reverse auction with soft close, ceiling price and reserve.
Score offers on a weighted scorecard combining price with delivery, quality, financial stability and ESG.
Convert the winning bid into a purchase order and export to Xero, MYOB or QuickBooks.
Track baseline vs awarded price across all events and produce a quarterly savings report.

Who QuickSource is built for

QuickSource is purpose-built for Australian SMEs and mid-market buyers running repeat-purchase workflows: cafes buying milk, packaging and cleaning supplies; builders buying materials and consumables; manufacturers buying repeat components; warehouses buying pallets, wrap, labels and PPE; facilities managers buying maintenance supplies; hotels buying linen, cleaning and food service items; aged-care providers buying consumables; franchise groups buying local supplies; civil contractors buying fuel, gravel, hire equipment and PPE.

What makes QuickSource different

Platforms like VendorPanel and TenderLink focus on formal tenders and RFQs — often for the public sector and large enterprises. QuickSource is built for the everyday, repeat-purchase side of procurement that SMEs actually live in. Fast quotes, light process, real competition, real savings.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a procurement team to use QuickSource?+

No. QuickSource is built so an office manager, owner or operations lead can run a reverse quote in under an hour. The AI handles the heavy lifting — drafting, supplier discovery and scoring.

Will my existing suppliers be upset?+

Done well, a reverse quote strengthens supplier relationships. Good suppliers welcome a structured, time-boxed process where the rules are clear. Incumbents who win get reassurance they are competitive; those who lose get a clear debrief and a chance to win next time.

How quickly can I get started?+

Most buyers run their first event within 14 days. Onboarding includes uploading your approved supplier list, choosing a category and configuring your scorecard template.

Can I track savings over time?+

Yes. QuickSource records the baseline price, the winning bid and the realised savings per category, so you can report quarterly or annually on procurement performance.
