Get the most competitive energy supply rates in minutes
When Suppliers Compete, You Win
Traditional energy procurement can be a lengthy and complex process, often taking anywhere from one to six months from initial analysis to contract signing. This extended timeline can drain resources and decision-makers' time.
Mantis' proprietary reverse auction platform, Procure, revolutionizes this process. By streamlining the Request for Proposal (RFP) process, Procure saves your team valuable time and ensures you secure the most favorable rates. With Procure, you'll receive real-time offers from the nation’s top energy suppliers, tailored to your organization’s current needs and future forecasts.
Key Benefits
Save Time and Resources
Mantis' auctions typically last just 5-10 minutes. With all vendors participating simultaneously, this process ensures you achieve the lowest price while significantly reducing the time and resources required.
No Obligations or Out of Pocket Expenses
Participation in a reverse auction is completely free, and you have no obligation to sign immediately if the rates aren't favorable.
Full Transparency
Mantis' platform ensures you see every offer from all participating suppliers, with equal products and terms, so there are no post-auction surprises.
Detailed Analysis and Live Auction Replay
After the auction, Mantis sends a detailed summary and cost-comparison analysis, along with a video recording of the auction event, directly to your inbox. This allows you to review the results before making final decisions and ensures compliance with any regulatory audits.
