Uncommoditized Rendering types

What is a rendering type?

The rendering type defines how the platform interacts with vendors and customers to deliver the most relevant information based on the service offered by the vendor. Additionally, the rendering type influences the booking process, which consists of two stages. Vendors are required to provide comprehensive details about their services, while customers must supply necessary information during booking to ensure a seamless service experience.

Uncommoditized rendering types available on SCND

SCND provides customers with the option to request proposals through two methods: directly contacting a vendor or creating a formal request for proposals (RFP). Vendors can browse a dedicated section containing all submitted RFPs and place bids based on the customer’s service description. To support this functionality, SCND offers two key features: the Request for Proposal Rendering Type and the Quotes Feature.

• Request for Proposal (RFP)

• Quotes

How to configure a rendering type

In SCND, the administrator has the capability to enable all rendering types simultaneously or select specific ones that align with the marketplace business model. To activate the commoditized service described in this documentation, access to the Super Back Office (SBO) is required. Navigate to the left-side menu and follow the path: SBO > Configurations > Features > Platform Configuration > Platform Mode to complete the configuration.

At least one of the Commoditized or Uncommoditized rendering types must be selected.
