Excel tools for procurement teams
Merge supplier quotations, normalize item descriptions, compare prices, and flag missing data before you generate a comparison report.
The problem
Comparing supplier quotations is tedious when each supplier sends their own spreadsheet with different column names, item descriptions, and layouts. Manually copying rows into one comparison sheet is slow and error-prone.
How it works
- Collect each supplier's quotation as an .xlsx or .csv file
- Merge all quotations into one workbook, one sheet per supplier
- Clean up inconsistent item descriptions and spacing (Clean Excel Data)
- Compare two versions of a quotation (e.g. before/after a negotiation) to see exactly what changed
Before / After
Before: five separate supplier files with different formats
After: one workbook, cleaned descriptions, ready to compare line by line

FAQ
Can it flag which supplier is cheapest automatically?
Not yet — Compare Excel Files shows you exactly what changed between two files, but automatic scoring across many suppliers is on the roadmap, not built yet.
