RFQ is reviewed and listed

Electricity Forum reviews and publishes the RFQ. Buyer contact details remain hidden.

Supplier unlocks contact

A supplier pays one credit to unlock buyer contact details after reviewing the specs.

Questions

Frequently asked

Is it really free for buyers to submit an RFQ?

Yes. Buyers submit RFQs at no cost. No account is required to start. Your contact details are never visible until a supplier purchases a credit to access your request.

What do suppliers see before they pay?

Suppliers see the full technical specification - technical scope, application, standards, timeline, and location - plus an estimated opportunity value. Buyer name, company, email, phone, and address remain hidden until purchase.

Which Substations RFQ form should I use?

Choose the form that most closely matches your equipment, service, system, or project type. If more than one form is close, choose the form that best describes the primary item being quoted and add related details in the notes field.

What is prequalification and do I need it as a supplier?

Prequalification is a free supplier profile review by Electricity Forum. Prequalified suppliers get a 24-72 hour first-look window on new RFQs and access to buyer-specified prequalified-only opportunities.

Do credits expire?

No. Credits never expire and there is no subscription required. Volume discounts are available. Credits work across any channel on the marketplace.

How many suppliers will see my substations RFQ?

Your RFQ is visible to registered suppliers in the Substations channel. As a buyer, your dashboard shows a count of how many suppliers have accessed your request without revealing supplier names.
