How can a team of four effectivelly answer 70K RFP questions per year?
At Jack Henry & Associates (JHA), a four-person team handles the RFP response process and is tasked with answering roughly 100 RFPs every year—each averaging 700 questions. Before Qvidian, this volume took its toll. Each member worked individually, responsible for completing all of the RFPs for designated groups of sales reps.
People outside the RFP team felt the pain of inefficiencies, too: SMEs were tired of answering the same questions again and again. Responses from SMEs—when they arrived on time—were often rushed and last-minute. The team tried several different products to address these problems, but none did the job.
Qvidian prompted the JHA team to take a step back and reassess their existing RFP response process. Using Qvidian, they slashed the time needed to complete necessary steps while completely eliminating others. When they were finished, they’d designed a faster, less cumbersome approach.
