A template RFQ for biodiesel plants buying UCO and recyclers buying used engine oil on BioTradX.

UCO RFQ fields

Monthly kilolitres, max FFA, max moisture, RUCO authorisation required, delivery point, trial lot yes/no.

Used engine oil RFQ fields

Oil type, water max, segregated yes/no, monthly kilolitres, authorisation to be attached by seller, depot access hours.

Scoring offers

Do not pick the highest rupee if papers are missing. Price plus authorisation plus weighment SLA.

Raise it on BioTradX

Freeze the spec in the RFQ so every seller answers the same question. That is the point of a digital marketplace versus a broadcast WhatsApp.
