Structured tender setup
Staged creation — details, contracts, suppliers, review — with per-location volumes, fuel types, and contract periods. Clone from last year's tender to launch in minutes.
Replace the spreadsheet-and-inbox tender with a secure, versioned workspace. Benchmark every bid against live market data, collaborate with your suppliers in-line, and close out awards with a full audit trail that finance and legal can verify in seconds.
Most airlines still run fuel tenders across dozens of emails, unmatched spreadsheets, and a handful of heroic analysts. It works, until the board asks how you benchmarked the winning bid, or until a supplier bids in MT when everyone else bid in USG.
Excel, PDF, email body — different currencies, units, and fee conventions. Normalizing them takes a week and introduces errors.
You're cross-referencing Platts manually against supplier quotes. By the time you've checked one station, the market has moved.
When finance asks why Supplier A was awarded over Supplier B, the answer is scattered across 40 emails and a shared drive.
Staged creation — details, contracts, suppliers, review — with per-location volumes, fuel types, and contract periods. Clone from last year's tender to launch in minutes.
Choose the bidding mode per tender — sealed with blind supplier identities for a confidential round, or real-time so you watch the market move as suppliers respond.
Per-tender, per-contract, per-location threaded chat. All clarifications visible to every bidder so everyone operates on the same information.
Parent holding companies can consolidate tenders across subsidiaries with roll-up reporting and per-child award confirmation.
Two-stage award workflow with branded notification emails, e-signatures on bids, and audit-ready confirmation trails.
Standards-based XML for tender invitations, awards, and cancellations — plug the platform directly into your ERP or fuel management system.
Platts and Argus prices sync daily into the platform. When a supplier bids "Platts Singapore + $0.12", you see the real dollar value of that offer side-by-side with every other bid — in your currency, your unit, your delivery term, your payment term.
A cheap price on 60-day terms can cost more than a higher price on net-10. JetFuelTenders lets you configure cost-of-capital, conversion factors, and fee structures so the "best bid" reflects your economics — not the supplier's formatting.
Factor your cost of capital into comparisons. A 30-day discount becomes a real dollar number, not an afterthought.
Model complex fee structures: per-gallon surcharges, tiered volume discounts, bonded vs. duty-paid, tax-on-tax restrictions.
Compare different award strategies side by side — single-source vs. multi-supplier, different contract terms — before making a decision.
If your structure includes multiple legal entities, regional procurement teams, or integrations with existing ERP and BI stacks, JetFuelTenders has been there.
