FAQ

Practical questions before starting.

Is this a full TMS replacement?

No. Tareline does not replace your TMS. The sprint focuses on the inbox-to-quote step where RFQs are read, structured, drafted, reviewed, and tracked.

Do you send quotes automatically?

No. Tareline prepares quote replies for review. Your team approves before anything is sent.

What if our pricing is custom?

That is expected. The sprint starts with your current rules, common lanes, customer context, and review process. Drafts stay editable before approval.

How much setup time does our team need?

Most of the setup is scoped to one workflow. Your team helps define the inbox, quote rules, review steps, and sample RFQs, then reviews prepared drafts during the sprint.

Can we use sample or forwarded emails first?

Yes. The sprint can begin with forwarded RFQ emails or scoped access to one shared inbox before any broader rollout.

What happens if the sprint does not create value?

You stop after the sprint. The goal is to prove response speed and workflow usefulness before expanding.
