Supplier Quote Comparison Worksheet

Compare the quote. Not just the unit price. Normalise price, delivery, MOQ, cash and qualification with unknown costs kept visible.

Works without email capture. Entries stay in this page until you leave; download or print to keep your work. The tool does not select a supplier.

1. Define the Buying Decision.

2. Put Both Quotes on the Same Basis.

Unitised freight, duty and other charges must use the same quantity basis as price. Show included and excluded costs in the source note. Unknown is never zero. This tool does not convert currencies.
