Glo has a conversation with you by asking relevant questions and uses natural language processing (NLP) technology to understand your project’s complex intent thoroughly to granularly scope your requirements.
Glo intelligently navigates you through the right path for all types of sourcing scenarios (RFP, RFI, RFQ, Sole Source, Delivery of Staffing, and Supplier Panel) with built-in category expertise for over 7,000 offerings.
To ensure you are buying with the right pricing model, Glo suggests templates tailored to your specific project for you to select and ensures suppliers complete them as a part of their proposal creation.
Glo gives you the flexibility to build and structure custom requirements and enables you to capture responses from suppliers in various formats (free text, multiple choice, or matrix).
Glo packages your responses into a beautifully formatted Smart Brief in real time, increasing clarity and precision. This benefits you to avoid overbuying and helps suppliers understand your specifications better.
After the scoping process, Glo instantly presents an unbiased list of risk-vetted suppliers, both new and preferred options. You can review their statuses and attributes, such as diversity certifications and MSA, to select the most appropriate ones to invite.
To help you make decisions efficiently about which supplier to invite to your project, Glo highlights suppliers’ case studies and experiences in specific industries as well as their geographies in their profile personalized to your project requirements.
You have the flexibility to decide which individuals from the supplier organization can view the project brief, and you can choose to work with people you already know or invite new users as needed. Additionally, Glo can suggest contacts if you don't have anyone in mind.
To safeguard sensitive or confidential project information, you can have suppliers execute a nondisclosure agreement (NDA) before sharing your brief. Glo will notify you once an NDA has been executed.
Within the platform, you can message all suppliers to relay the same information or message suppliers individually to discuss their specific proposals. Collaborating with suppliers has never been easier, which increases efficiency and compliance.
You can efficiently view, track, request revisions, and evaluate proposals from all suppliers in a central place. Glo highlights key information and arms you with insights to help you negotiate better.
A side-by-side comparison of proposals with key information from different suppliers laid out in a consistent format helps you evaluate suppliers efficiently without missing out on important details.
When you leverage Smart Pricing Templates during scoping, Glo delivers cost analysis and meaningful insights by using supplier proposal data, enabling you to focus on strategic negotiations with the suppliers.
E-Negotiation unlocks savings by enabling you to initiate a negotiation round with suppliers, sharing how competitive their proposals are relative to others, and encouraging them to submit their best bid.
You can easily assess suppliers based on the predefined criteria set in your brief. All of your colleagues’ assessments are showcased in one place, helping you select the best supplier with confidence, more transparency, and better compliance.
Streamline your statement of work (SOW) creation process when awarding your project. Choose one of your standard SOW templates, and Globality automatically pre-fills it with essential information from the supplier’s proposal and your brief.
Once you have decided to award the work to a supplier, Glo takes you through compliance-related steps that align with your processes. This includes whether the supplier has gone through all required activities, ranging from risk-vetting to legal compliance, prior to moving forward.
Globality integrates with your procurement and contracting systems. Project and proposal information is sent automatically to your existing systems, enabling users to experience seamless workflows.

Upon project completion, Glo captures feedback about supplier performance from you and your peers. Our AI engine uses this feedback and other interactions to help you with smart decision-making for future projects.
