Your first five minutes

Build a useful starting point: your company profile, a relevant search and a monitor you can return to.

1. Set up your company

Complete the onboarding steps in Otnox. Describe what your company supplies and select the markets and categories relevant to your work. Check your selected market and trial end date in your account.

A specific description is more useful than a broad label such as “services”. See Company profile.

2. Find a relevant tender

Open Tenders and choose your market. Start with a category or a short keyword, then narrow by status and other available filters. If results are empty, remove one filter at a time.

Open a result to review its buyer, deadline, value and source. Check the original documents before making a bid decision.

3. Save your starting point

Bookmark a useful tender. Save a filter combination if you want to run the same search again. See Favorites and saved filters.

4. Create your first monitor

Open Monitoring, create a rule using the markets and filters that worked in your search, and choose an action. Test the rule before enabling it. See Setting up monitoring.

Choose where to receive updates with notification channels.

5. Bring a tender into your workflow

Use Add to project from a tender to track it with your team. Review the opportunity, assign responsibility and move it through your pipeline. See Creating an application.
