Every RFQ answered. Every line sourced. CORE
Distributors win on speed and coverage. Cintra matches every line to your catalog and contract pricing, so quotes go out in hours and nothing worth winning sits unanswered.
The quote desk is a race, and volume decides it.
A distribution quote desk lives against the clock. The first credible quote often wins, but every RFQ arrives as a different mess: a BOM in Excel, a scanned PDF, a part list pasted into an email. Someone has to decode it, match it, source it, and price it before the customer moves on.
When volume spikes, the desk triages. Small quotes go out late, big ones consume the day, and the opportunities in between quietly expire. Adding inside sales reps helps for a quarter, then the backlog returns.
How the desk runs your RFQs.

Send us a quote request.
Free, and it takes one email. You see Cintra working on your documents, your pricing, and your formats, not a canned demo. Two good ways to start:
- Send the one on your desk right now. We'll return a priced, submission-ready draft while your deadline is still ahead of you.
- Or send one you already finished, along with its source files. We'll rebuild it so you can compare our output to what you actually sent, line by line.
