What is the current situation?

Procurement is often time-consuming these days, and yet there is no guarantee you are getting the best offer.

Iron and steel industry purchasers often request quotes via phone and email; this process is time-consuming and difficult to track, making it easy to miss out on the best market opportunities.
01
The offers arrive in separate emails and in various formats.
There is no single place where you can see prices, deadlines, and terms side-by-side—yet this is what would enable an objective decision.
02
Often, only the usual partners compete for your business.
The existing pool of suppliers is a convenient and reliable choice, but it does not necessarily represent the best offer in every case. 
03
If the buyer is on vacation or sick, the process is stalled
He holds the pricing details and contacts in his head; it would be difficult to quickly bring someone else in to take his place.
Live system, not concept

This is what the platform looks like from the inside

Submitted requests for quotes, received offers, and price fluctuations for material types—all in one place, based on real data.
Why now?

A B2B beszerzés digitalizációja a magyar piacon még korai szakaszban van

B2B decision-makers increasingly expect multi-channel, digital, and hybrid purchasing processes, not exclusively personal or telephone sales relationships. At the international level, RFQ-based raw material procurement platforms already exist, which validates the category; in the Hungarian and regional markets, this is still in an early stage.
Early entry
There is no established digital RFQ standard in the domestic iron and steel industry segment yet
Validated category
Nemzetközi RFQ-alapú beszerzési platformok már bizonyítottak, csak itthon még hiányzik.
Changing expectations
Procurement organizations are increasingly expecting a digital, measurable process instead of a phone call
Customer process

This is how you connect to
from registration to the winning bid

The RFQ engine works by allowing you to submit your request in minutes, after which suppliers compete for your business.
01
Quick registration
You can create your account on the platform in just a few minutes, and once approved, you can immediately start requesting quotes.
02
Igény megadása egyértelműen, tévedés nélkül
Kiválasztod az anyagkategóriát, majd egy strukturált űrlapon adod meg a paramétereket, nincs félreértés, nincs tévesen megrendelt anyag.
02
Sending a request for quotation with an automatic identifier
The system generates a unique quote number and sends it to relevant, validated suppliers—so you don’t have to call or email them individually.
03
Compare offers in one place, transparently.
You can view and rank incoming offers in a single view based on your own preferences: price, delivery deadline, or—if you are picking up the goods yourself—the earliest available pickup time. Alternative offers are distinguished by a clear, prominent marker.
05
Nyertes kiválasztása
Kiválasztod a legjobb ajánlatot, az adatok bekerülnek az árelőzményeidbe, így legközelebb is gyorsan visszakeresheted.
Why is it worth it?

Saves time and gets you materials
at the best price

It does not replace all human interaction, but it greatly facilitates the daily work of procurement professionals and makes measurable and comparable what currently takes place in a fragmented manner via email.
01
Time and transparency
You can compare all incoming offers in one place—reducing the number of emails—and the system ranks them based on your preferences (such as price, deadline, or the earliest pickup time if you are collecting the materials yourself).
02
Best price
It creates a state of constant competition among vendors, forcing them to offer good prices; the owner can be certain that decisions are not driven by the purchasing agent's convenience or force of habit.
03
Easily filterable history
No need to dig through emails and invoices: with a single click, you can see who you last bought a specific material from, when, and at what price.
04
Automatic feedback
A single click instead of drafting a reply email. There is no need to make calls to check if an offer is coming; the request remains open until the vendor submits an offer or declines it.
05
Clear interface, clear requirement
Clearly specifying fiber length, design, tolerance, origin, and quantity avoids unnecessary inquiries and incorrect material orders, while alternative offers are clearly distinguished.
Not just new leads

More efficient bid management a 
in everyday work

The Materials Market not only brings new business opportunities, 
but makes the entire bidding process more transparent and simpler.
Promotional background

Previous partner offers and pricing history can be retrieved in one place, so you don’t have to search through old emails or invoices.
01
Simple replacement

In the event of a vacancy, illness, or temporary capacity shortage, requests for quotes can be easily redirected to another employee.
02
Clear alternative offers

A rendszer jól elkülönítve jelöli az eredetitől eltérő, alternatív ajánlatokat, csökkentve a tévesen diszponált vagy megrendelt anyagok kockázatát.
03
Transparent bid statuses

You can keep track of where requests for quotes are waiting to be answered, which are currently being processed, and which have already been completed.
04
Automatic reminders

The system indicates when a request for quote is still awaiting a response, so there are fewer sales opportunities going unnoticed.
05
Market feedback

Lezárás után látod, mekkora volt a szórás a legjobb és legrosszabb ajánlat között a kategóriádban, így legközelebb pontosabban tudod, mire számíts.
06
Beyond the Request for Proposal

What is useful beyond the RFQ

The platform goes beyond mere requests for quotations; value can also be derived from procurement data and the marketplace.
Forum / Marketplace
Listings for value-added services (cutting, sizing, surface treatment, heat treatment) and subcontracted work. It also serves as a secondary market: you can sell surplus or damaged material, while merchants clear out discounted, slow-moving stock here. 
Reports
Owners and purchasers receive nationwide market price and usage data, including an illustration of the difference between the lowest and highest prices.
Contacts
The merchant's details and up-to-date contact information are always displayed—no need to go searching for them—which is particularly useful when dealing with a company that is new to you.

Röviden összefoglalva

Rendszer összegzés

A Materials Market nem egy újabb ipari webshop, hanem az a digitális infrastruktúra, ahol a beszerzési igény, a releváns beszállítói kapacitás és a másodpiaci készlet egy helyen találkozik. 

Ráadásul nem csak eladni tudják ezek a gyártó cégek a megmaradt anyagaikat, hanem másik hozzájuk hasonló cégek is feltöltik az anyagukat, amiket szintén meg lehet vásárolni. Így nem csak a kereskedőtől tudsz anyagot venni.
Probléma
A vas- és acélipari beszerzés széttagolt, manuális és nehezen összehasonlítható.
Megoldás
Iparágspecifikus, RFQ-alapú B2B piactér, amely a vevői igényt a releváns beszállítói kapacitással kapcsolja össze.
Kiemelt különbség
Az ajánlatkérési rendszer mellett már az indulástól működő másodpiac jelenik meg a bennragadt és megmaradt készletek számára.

Frequently Asked Questions

What you should know as a buyer

From how many suppliers will I receive a quote for an RFQ?

We work with nearly 100 active supplier partners; consequently, once an RFQ is submitted, all relevant, validated quotes are gathered—based on material quality and capacity—ensuring you can choose from the options best suited to your needs.

How long does it take to get a response?

This varies by supplier, but the system sends reminders to those who have not yet responded. Most quotes arrive within a few hours, or within a maximum of 12–24 hours.

For which material categories can I request a quote?

At the outset, we are open to all categories of iron and steel raw materials; we do not narrow down the range to any single product group in advance.

Can I switch plans mid-term?

Yes, you can upgrade to a higher plan at any time if your need for quote requests increases; there are no long-term commitments or contractual obligations.

Do you have any more questions?
