RFP Consulting
The investment that many organizations make in their websites is significant, at times exceeding $100,000. The assistance that the IBCC provides, assures that your vision for your web development project is communicated effectively to potential vendors through the request for proposal. But for many, writing the RFP or request for proposals is the easy part. Once the proposals start to roll in, then the process of selecting the right website developer with the best qualifications begins and if you’re not versed in the technical aspects of website development, that can be a daunting task.
So how do you know you’re making the right decision. On paper, all of the companies look similar. They all claim to have the experience to handle the work. They all have great testimonials and their prices may even be similar. After receiving dozens of proposals, comparing apples to oranges can be a difficult task. Because no two proposals are the same, the evaluation process often proves to be as tricky as the writing of the RFP itself.
So how can you choose the right one? It’s difficult.
You’ll probably wind up speaking with many website experts throughout the process but who can you trust? While each of the vendors you interview will undoubtedly offer great advice, only the IBCC can offer completely unbiased advice because the IBCC doesn’t have a dog in the fight, so to speak. You’ll have piece of mind knowing that the experts at the IBCC are on your side, holding your hand as you make these important decisions for your company.
Website RFP assistance provided by the IBCC was developed to serve small businesses, non-profits, government agencies and NGOs as they begin the daunting process of finding a qualified vendor for their website development project. But the help doesn’t end after the selection of the vendor.
The IBCC can help from start to finish, even offering an unbiased review of the website after it goes live. Our unparalelled website review looks at more than 190 different points in a website to determine if it’s meeting its full potential in areas such as initial impressions, marketing, sales, SEO and more. This 3-part custom audit will reveal the weak areas within the site that can be silent killers while also highlighting the most successful areas of the site so that they can be capitalized upon.
