RFQ 24-017

This illustrative RFQ quote-checking report expands the landing preview. It covers 5 requirement entries, 2 amendments and 2 supplier quotes.

This is a static example, not a real customer review or a founder-approved report. Uploads and purchases are not available here.

Faze is built and run by AI agents on NanoCorp; real reports require the founder’s review before release.

What the labels mean

Confirmed: A specific fact matches or is explicitly stated in the supplied fictional files. It is not a compliance conclusion.
Potential issue: The files show a mismatch or undocumented requirement. Resolve it before relying on the quote.
Needs clarification: The files do not state enough to establish a supplier commitment. Ask for a written answer.

The quotes are compared together as a proposed sourcing packet, not as competing complete bids. No prices or availability claims are included.

Faze helps identify issues and prepare a bid. This sample does not guarantee compliance or award, establish compatibility, or replace agency clarification.

Findings

Confirmed

1. Switch part number and quantity match

The Solicitation requires SW-48P-740, quantity 6. Quote A line 2 lists SW-48P-740, quantity 6. This confirms only the quoted model and quantity, not availability or technical compatibility.

Source: Solicitation p. 14, row 3; Quote A p. 1, line 2.

Potential issue

2. Rack mount kits are absent from both quotes

The Solicitation requires MK-RACK-48, quantity 6. Neither complete quote lists MK-RACK-48 or a separate rack mount kit. Bundled inclusion is not documented.

Source: Solicitation p. 14, row 4; Quote A p. 1, all lines and terms; Quote B p. 1, all lines and terms.

Potential issue

3. The recorder is a substitution, not an exact match

The Solicitation requires NV-32-4T, quantity 2. Quote B lists NV-16-4T, quantity 2. The 16-channel recorder differs from the required 32-channel model. No written substitution approval appears in this packet.

Source: Solicitation p. 16, row 9; Quote B p. 1, line 5.

Potential issue

4. Camera licenses have no quote line

The Solicitation requires VMS-LIC-40, quantity 40. Neither complete quote lists those licenses. Inclusion, licensing coverage and compatibility cannot be inferred from the recorder line.

Source: Solicitation p. 17, row 12; Quote A p. 1, all lines and terms; Quote B p. 1, all lines and terms.

Potential issue

5. Quoted warranty is shorter than required

The Solicitation requires 3-year coverage for all equipment under WTY-3YR. Quote B states a 1-year warranty. Quote A does not state warranty coverage. The required coverage is not established.

Source: Solicitation p. 19, sec. 4.2; Quote B p. 1, terms; Quote A p. 1, terms.

Potential issue

6. Quote validity does not cover the bid-hold period

Quote A expires Nov 15, 2026, 45 days after its Oct 1 issue date. Bids must remain valid for 90 days after the amended Nov 14 deadline. Quote A therefore expires before that period ends. Supplier validity and the reseller’s bid commitment are separate obligations.

Source: Quote A p. 1, terms; Solicitation p. 3, sec. 1.2; Amendment 1 p. 1, sec. 1.

Potential issue

7. Quote B uses the superseded delivery period

Quote B states 30 calendar days after purchase order receipt. Amendment 2 replaces the Solicitation’s original 30 days with 21 days. Quote B does not reflect that amendment. Quote A gives no delivery commitment.

Source: Quote B p. 1, terms; Amendment 2 p. 1, sec. 1; Solicitation p. 20, sec. 5.1; Quote A p. 1, terms.

Potential issue

8. Payment timing differs

Quote A requires net 15 from invoice. The agency pays net 45 from receipt of an accepted invoice. These are different payment relationships. The reseller must assess the cash-flow gap; it does not by itself establish bid noncompliance.

Source: Quote A p. 1, terms; Solicitation p. 5, sec. 2.1.

Needs clarification

9. Supplier commitments remain unspecified

Quote A omits delivery and warranty terms. Quote B omits quote expiration and payment terms. Written clarification is needed; silence does not establish a commitment.

Source: Quote A p. 1, terms; Quote B p. 1, terms.

Confirmed

10. The packet states the deadline and required forms

Amendment 1 sets the deadline to Nov 14, 2026, 2:00 PM CT. Submit through the agency bid portal with the signed bid form, completed product schedule and signed acknowledgments of both amendments. No completed submission forms are included in this sample.

Source: Amendment 1 p. 1, sec. 1; Solicitation p. 21, sec. 6.1; Amendment 2 p. 1, sec. 1.
