Case Study: National Retail Corporation achieves secure, streamlined bidding workflow with Globalscape EFT Enterprise

National Retailer Streamlines Bidding Process with EFT Enterprise

National Retailer, a major national retail corporation, faced the recurring challenge of securely distributing plans for new stores and warehouses to local developers and then collecting confidential bids without exposing competing firms or creating heavy IT overhead. To address this, they adopted Globalscape’s EFT Enterprise managed file transfer solution (with the Web Transfer Client) to enable employees to run the bidding process end-to-end.

Globalscape implemented EFT Enterprise Workspaces so project staff can create shared plan folders and private bid-submission folders via a browser, invite external firms by email, and allow secure uploads/downloads without provisioning new users or complex permissions. The Globalscape solution preserved bid confidentiality, automated the bidding workflow, empowered employees to manage projects directly, and removed administrative burden from IT, delivering secure, repeatable file-sharing and streamlined bid collection.
