Hi Alokesh,

     Internal Bidding - Bidding takes place within the same system where the BID(RFx) was created.

     External Bidding - Bidding takes place in a different customized system (SUS) and the data is communicated back to the original system. 

     This was all technical perspective.. But as a business-technical point why do we need this ??

          For security or some other reason we don't want the bidder to access the primary system, hence a separate system(SUS) is created, where in the bidder can quote.

Its a more of technical difference rather than business perspective...

Best regards,

Radhakrishna
