Repair spec to packaged RFQs

Tidal reads the dry-dock spec, structures it into work items and material lines, and packages RFQs to the yards and suppliers that cover each scope. Material lines are matched to catalogue items and codes; service lines carry their scope, so quotes come back comparable.

Compare yards and suppliers line by line

Dry-dock quotes are notoriously hard to compare. Tidal lines them up per work item and material line, normalises units, and flags exclusions and assumptions, so you award each package on real numbers rather than a headline total. See the approach on the quote comparison workflow.

Budget and variation control

Dry-dock budgets move as variations land. Tidal tracks committed and actual spend against the budget per work item, so change orders are visible and approved rather than discovered at the final account. Live in about a week.

Frequently asked questions

What is dry dock procurement software?

It is software for buying the materials and services of a dry-dock or repair project: turning the repair spec into RFQs, comparing yard and supplier quotes, and controlling spend against budget. Tidal structures the spec and makes the quotes comparable line by line.

How does Tidal make dry-dock quotes comparable?

It lines quotes up per work item and material line, normalises units, and flags exclusions and assumptions, so you compare real scope and price rather than headline totals.

Can it control variations and budget?

Yes. Tidal tracks committed and actual spend against the budget per work item, so change orders and variations are visible and approved rather than surfacing at the final account.

Does it handle both materials and services?

Yes. Material lines are matched to catalogue items and item codes; service and labour lines carry their scope, so a mixed dry-dock package is quoted and compared in one place.
