About Us
About
Launched in 2005, WhyAbe.com was developed to provide procurement tools and promote collaboration between buyers and suppliers in a global marketplace. The current community includes thousands of progressive suppliers and buyers seeking to find new business opportunities or improve existing relationships.
Mission
WhyAbe's mission is to create tools that allow buyers and suppliers of products and services to easily exchange information.
The Market
WhyAbe.com is not limited to any products, services, or commodities. In fact, one of the powers of the system is the flexibility to attach your own documents and create multiple line-items when you create a Request for Proposal, Reverse Auction or Seller's Listing. RFPs and Reverse Auctions can be public or private. Private RFP and Reverse Auction listings are only accessible by the suppliers and reviewers that the Buyer invites.
Buyer's Listings (RFP and Reverse Auction)
Buyers of any product or service (commercial, government, or consumer) can use the Source option and create a Request for Proposal (RFP), or Reverse Auction. Buyers can upload their own attachments and specifications, invite their own suppliers by entering email addresses, and can select from pre-registered vendors. Once an RFP or Reverse Auction is created, buyers can view the bids from multiple suppliers on a single screen via the Dashboard. When creating a Reverse Auction, the buyer chooses whether they want the supplier to see the lowest bid price, or their rank for the entire listing or individual line items.
Seller's Listings (Products and Services for Sale)
To respond to the requests of many suppliers, WhyAbe has created a new feature in which Suppliers can create their own listings for products or services that they sell. Using the Sell option, suppliers can categorize a product or service that they would like to promote, and can upload multiple attachments to include for information. Buyers will be able to see these listings in the sellers listings and quote on the products or services, just as suppliers can respond to a request for proposal in the Buyer's listings.
