Service: Preparing RFP Requirements

If your organization has identified the need for a particular solution, but has not nailed down the specific business needs the solution must meet, Doreen Evans Associates can assist you in creating an RFP that will get you the answers you need to select a vendor solution. With several facilitated sessions and interviews, the business requirements for the solution can be defined and turned into an RFP document ready to be sent out to vendors.

When does this service make sense?

	The desired solution and its functionality is foreign to the project team
	The solution implementation will be wide-spread and requirements must be gathered from various stakeholders
	The business needs are not well defined
	There are many vendors in the space and your organization needs help finding the right fit
