How tenders work

We usually invite 3-5 partners to a closed tender. Offers are binding and valid for at least 10 days, and the winner is chosen by price, lead time and rating.

  • You do not see the buyer, the other invited partners, their number or their prices.
  • An offer is a net price per piece and a shipping date in business days. It is binding and valid for at least 10 days.
  • You can change or withdraw your offer until the tender window closes. There is no second round after it closes.
  • An offer far below the typical level requires confirming the scope: material, quantity, tolerances, threads, finish, certificate.
  • We choose the winner by price (60%), lead time (20%) and partner rating (20%), with HexoParts approval.

After the buyer orders or the price expires, you learn by what percentage (rounded to 5 points) your price was higher than the chosen one, or that a shorter lead time or higher rating was chosen.
