RFP & Vendor Selection
Choose the right partner for the work ahead.
A strong selection process brings the right people into the conversation, asks the questions that matter, and gives leadership a clear basis for deciding.
We bring deep knowledge of the healthcare digital partner landscape and experience working alongside health system teams. We help you navigate an objective process grounded in your organization’s priorities, requirements, and capacity.
There’s a lot behind the choice.
Who needs a voice in the decision?
Marketing, IT, operations, and leadership may see the needs differently. Those perspectives need to come together before proposals can be meaningfully evaluated.
01
Are we comparing the same thing?
Proposals can make different assumptions about content, integrations, migration, and support. What’s included, what’s missing, and what falls to your team?
02
What will this partnership look like in practice?
Beyond capabilities and credentials, you need to understand how a partner works, what they’ll need from you, and whether their approach fits your organization.
03
How we help
Align the right people
Bring together the stakeholders who will shape, approve, and carry the work forward. Clarify priorities, constraints, and what success needs to look like.
Build a meaningful comparison
Develop RFP materials, evaluation criteria, and scorecards. Coordinate Q&A and focused finalist discussions that go beyond a standard pitch to examine assumptions, responsibilities, and delivery approach.
Define the need and identify relevant partners
Translate those priorities into clear requirements and identify partners suited to the initiative. Our knowledge of the landscape informs the options and questions; your criteria guide the evaluation.
Prepare the decision
Bring findings, demonstrations, and reference insights into clear comparisons and recommendations. Help stakeholders work through trade-offs and give leadership the context needed to make an informed choice.
Shared priorities. Clear comparisons. A well-informed decision.
We help capture the decisions and expectations that should carry into the next phase. Your organization retains the selection and approval.
