RFP Submission Step 5: Upload Spec Sheets

Written by AQ Help Desk

The Upload Spec Sheet stage is the fifth and final step in the RFP submission workflow. In this step, vendors can upload or replace spec sheets for their units before submitting the completed RFP.

*Note: This step is optional. You can bypass it at any time by clicking Submit in the top-right corner of the page.


Purpose

The Upload Specs step allows vendors to:

  • Attach missing spec sheets to units.

  • Replace outdated or inaccurate spec sheets.

  • Verify that all unit specifications are accurate prior to submission.

Although the platform does not require spec sheets until the Hold Request phase, some RFP issuers may request them earlier within their RFP notes.


Viewing Existing Spec Sheets

If any spec sheets are already associated with your inventory:

  • They will automatically appear in the Spec Sheet column.

  • Click the file link in the column to view or download an existing sheet.


Uploading or Replacing Spec Sheets

To upload or replace a spec sheet for a single unit:

  1. Locate the unit in the Upload Specs grid.

  2. Click Upload/Replace in the row for that unit.

  3. Use the upload modal to attach the updated file.

  4. Click Save to confirm the upload.


Bulk Actions

Bulk actions in this step function the same way as in the Upload Images stage.

To take action on multiple units:

  1. Use the toggles on the right-hand side to select units, or click Select All to choose all.

  2. Click the Actions button to open the dropdown menu.

  3. Choose from the following options:
