The “Sourcing Management” menu handles the RFx Evaluations and award-related functionalities in MeRLIN. Suppliers are selected during evaluations. Once the suppliers are selected as a result of sourcing activities such as an RFQ or an Auction, now it is time to choose the items and award them. This award is then sent to the Supplier for acceptance. If the Supplier rejects the award, the award can be deleted and sourcing decisions can be chosen again. Also, in this section, we will show how the award is created and how contracts are created automatically from the award. To access the menu, navigate to the Sourcing Management menu in the left-side navigation pane.
