Panel Management for Council

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: Contractor Compliance management and open and transparent procurement practices via market approach

Pros:

The platform enables Council to effectively manage its panel arrangements of suppliers for core council business activities. It assists Council in contractor compliance management and the request for quote tool for repeat contractor engagement providing clear and transparent procurement processes meeting its legislative obligations.

Cons:

The background colours could be improved on. It can sometimes be difficult to differentiate between data entry cells and the generic background. Data Analytics and reports / statistics would be ideal to be able to run by the user rather than a request to the help team.

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: Fantastic. Some of the best customer service around. Constantly striving to improve and provide the best platform for its customers and the industry

Very little to dislike about this software. Any issue encountered has always been promptly addressed by the Felix team.

Prema's Review

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: Really fantastic to use - I have recommended this to one more company already where my previous manager is working

Pros:

It accommodates most of our procurement plan requirements and easy to produce useful reports for the senior management.

Cons:

Scale the prices are currently in whole number increments but this needs to get in decimals so that we can scale the price more appropriately.

Felix Vendor and Contract Management Software review

4.0 2 years ago

Pros:

I like the vendor managed model, where the vendor is responsible for maintaining the compliance documents and information. I also love the contract module, as it provides a level of contract visibility without too much input and ongoing management.

Cons:

Lack of vendor engagement, including Felix involvement in prompting. Limitations in catering for multiple vendor's sub entities. Also restrictions in vendor's being able to update/alter their company details ie. ABN, change of contact.

Great Tool!

5.0 last year

Pros:

As I am still a new user I have yet to discover all of the features, but what I am using has been fantastic - sending off the questionnaires to our prospective contractors and having the program do the rest is amazing!

Cons:

Would love an export feature for the answers as currently it isn't possible, but that's not a huge thing as we are only doing one or two at a time.

Alex's review 15/11/2022

4.0 2 years ago

Comments: One of the key benefits I have found is provided by the product is the consolidation of the compliance requirements for vendors that our business seeks to engage. This assists in the procurement process shortening the lead time and reducing repetitive tasks across the business.

Pros:

I am not using the product frequently and I am still a beginner user, but I find the product easy to use.

Cons:

Have not used the product for sufficient time to be able to find shortcomings yet.

Headache Solved

5.0 5 years ago

Pros:

Felix’ flexible approach allows us to tailor our various vendor pre-qualification needs by not only supply category, but also by region / project. We struggled to find this capability in any other platform, especially one that also streamlines the RFx process.

Cons:

The platform doesn't currently manage the compliance of individuals as well as it does the compliance of a vendor as a whole, however I am told this functionality is on Felix's roadmap and should be available in future.
