The Agora portal allows you to conduct several types of trading. This section discusses two types, identical in functionality, but slightly different in pricing:

  1. An RFP is a competition where the proposed price for an item may (but does not have to) include shipping costs. Functionally, this auction is no different from the Request for Prices auction. But the supplier may add delivery costs to the price of the product or regulate the delivery price in a separate agreement.
  2. A RFQ is a competition where the price offered for an item does NOT include shipping costs. Functionally, this auction is no different from the Request for Proposals auction.
