Proposal Software Simplifies RFP and RFI Responses

Responding to requests for proposals (RFPs) and requests for information (RFIs) can be a time-consuming pain in the netherparts.

I know; I helped the team at the teleservices firm that I had worked with on a few of them. One cannot help thinking how many more leads, sales, and revenues via other channels could have been received, followed up on, and brought to profitable fruition during the same period for an equal amount of effort.

So when I came across a report on the latest version of Proposal Software's PMAPS ® 2008 RFP/RFI management application I smiled: there is help at last for firms like my old teleservices company.

Proposal Software's PMAPS 2008 (PMAPS stands for Proposal Management And Production System) provides a proprietary web-based technology that works with CRM systems. For example it tracks all information about RFPs/RFIs like due dates; it also stores and retrieves multiple answers to the same or similar sets of questions

Among the new features in PMAPS 2008 is a web-based Search Accelerator module functionally that greatly expands the existing PMAPS web-based 'read only' Document Portal. The application also includes 'Pitch Book' capabilities in the Assembly module and the ability to "search anywhere" and index Word, PowerPoint, Excel, HTML and PDF file content. All told PMAPS 2008 includes over 100 additions and improvements designed to increase business efficiencies and cost savings.

Proposal Software says its solution can provide a 50% savings in productivity in the RFP process which translates into savings of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of dollars per year. This figure may well be an understatement; it doesn't include the copious amounts of java consumed and demand for future hair implants when figuring out the responses.

In today's economic climate we all have to work smarter, to achieve more results with fewer resources: both time and investments. Solutions like PMAPS 2008 may be just the ticket to help enterprises, yes including teleservices companies, win more business and sales for less.
