Purchasing a project solution versus building one internally to avoid the cost and time of re-inventing the wheel is becoming more common on projects.
Selecting a vendor through a Request For Proposal (RFP) process doesn’t always guarantee that the solution the vendor proposed, and the project team selected, really meets the project’s needs and stakeholder’s expectations.
Often project teams make the mistake of jumping straight to the proposal portion of the their project lifecycle before clearly defining the project needs. The resulting RFP sent to vendors is vague and fails to communicate the critical requirements vendors need to propose accurate solutions.
Vendors who respond to the RFP are left with little choice except to make many assumptions on what the project needs are and base their proposals on these, often times, false assumptions. Because the project requirements are so vague, almost any vendor solution appears to adequately address the need.
Learn the critical success factors of an RFP effort and the characteristics that cause many RFP efforts to fail.
In this 1 hour in-depth webinar participants learn about:
- Critical Success Factors of the RFP process
- Characteristics of a successful RFP process
- Common pitfalls that cause RFP efforts to fail
