FAQ
1. Why should I pay for this service? Can't I just write the RFP myself?
Time Savings: A well-crafted RFP takes 20-40 hours; we will free you and your team to focus on your core business. Expertise: We know the right questions to ask to uncover hidden risks and requirements. Better Proposals: Higher-quality vendors ensure you receive "apples-to-apples" proposals
2. How much does the Strategic RFP Development Service cost?
For a simple RFP, our services are typically offered on a fixed-fee basis, ranging from $1,500 to $4,000. The final price depends on the complexity of your requirements and the level of stakeholder coordination needed.
3. How long will it take to get my final RFP?
Our standard process for a simple RFP takes between 3 and 10 business days. The single biggest factor influencing the timeline is the availability of your internal stakeholders for the initial discovery session and the final review.
4. How much of my team's time will this actually require?
Initial Discovery Session: One 60-90 minute meeting with all key stakeholders. Draft Review: Approximately 1-2 hours to review the first draft and provide consolidated feedback.
5. What exactly do I receive at the end of the process?
The Final RFP Document: A professionally formatted, polished document delivered in both PDF (for distribution) and Microsoft Word (for your future use and records). Vendor Evaluation Scorecard: A custom Excel template based on your specific evaluation criteria.
6. What if my project is more complex than "simple"? Do you handle that?
Yes. While this service is packaged for "simple" projects, we have extensive experience with complex, enterprise-level RFPs for multi-phase software implementations, large-scale operational overhauls, and more. If your project is more complex, we will discuss that during our initial consultation.
7. Do you help us choose the vendor after the RFP is sent out?
This core service focuses on creating a world-class RFP document to set you up for success. However, we do offer a separate Procurement Support & Vendor Evaluation service as a next step. This can include managing vendor Q&A, facilitating the evaluation process, and assisting with final negotiations
8. How is this service better than just using a free RFP template I found online?
Customization: We don't just fill in blanks. We work with you to understand your unique business problem and craft strategic questions that a template would never include. Industry Insight: We apply best practices from your industry to ensure your requirements are relevant and comprehensive.
9. My project idea is sensitive. Is our information kept confidential?
Absolutely. We treat all client information with the strictest confidence. We are more than happy to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before our initial discovery session to ensure your project details and business information are fully protected.
10. I'm interested! What's the first step?
Getting started is easy. Simply contact us to schedule your complimentary, no-obligation 30-minute consultation. In this call, we'll discuss your project goals, determine if our service is a good fit, and provide you with a clear, fixed-fee quote
