Distributors often lose valuable time and margin managing supplier RFQs through disconnected emails, manual follow-ups, and inconsistent processes. Sending RFQs to multiple suppliers, tracking responses, and comparing quotes can be slow and error-prone—making it harder to secure the best pricing and delaying the creation of purchase orders. As supply chains remain volatile, distributors need faster, more reliable ways to engage suppliers and move from RFQ to PO with confidence.

In this session, you’ll get an early look at Epicor Prism Business Communications for Prophet 21, an AI-powered agent that automates supplier RFQ communications directly within your ERP. Prism Business Communications enables purchasing teams to send RFQs to suppliers, monitor and manage incoming responses, and seamlessly convert the selected supplier quote into a purchase order. We’ll demo upcoming capabilities, highlight the value for purchasing teams, and share how you can gain early access ahead of the planned 2026 launch.
