ABSTRACT:
Systems and techniques to create and conduct a reverse auction include creating a reverse auction object having a number of components; and copying information from a number of components in a Request for Quotation (RFQ) object into corresponding components of the reverse auction object. Bids received for the RFQ may be copied into the reverse auction object, and information in the bids may be validated. If the bids do not include information required for the reverse auction object, the bid may be marked as incomplete.
