Supplier proposal comparison · for procurement leads and category managers
Every proposal read. One clear comparison.
Three suppliers, three hundred pages, one recommendation due. Nexlyr AI reads each proposal end to end, lines the suppliers up criterion by criterion and hands you the comparison with the evidence attached. You make the call.
What you hand it
What Nexlyr AI does with it
It reads each proposal on its own
Every response is read in full and attributed strictly to its own supplier, so one vendor's claims never bleed into another's column.
It scores against your criteria with evidence
Each criterion is marked as exceeded, met, partially met or not addressed, with the reason pulled from the proposal itself. A criterion a supplier skipped is marked not addressed, never guessed.
It builds the comparison you would have built
A criteria by supplier matrix, a profile per supplier and a strengths and risks read for each, organised so the trade-offs are visible at a glance.
You own the verdict
The suggested direction is exactly that, a suggestion. Every cell, score and recommendation is editable before anyone else sees it.

Questions, answered.
Can it mix suppliers up?+
No. Each proposal is treated as one supplier's voice and the comparison keeps every claim in its own column. Evidence is quoted from the supplier's own document.
What happens when a supplier does not answer a criterion?+
It is marked not addressed. Nexlyr AI never fills a gap with a guess, because a guessed score is exactly what unravels in the negotiation.
Proposals quote in different currencies. What happens?+
Costs are compared in their own currencies unless you supply an exchange rate. Nexlyr AI never applies a rate you did not give it.
Is the recommendation final?+
The deck suggests a preferred supplier with its reasoning, and you edit anything you disagree with. The tool organises the evidence. The decision stays yours.
The evidence organised. The decision still yours.
