Discover our formalized vendor selection process

We have a proven, multi-dimensional supplier selection methodology. While we facilitate the entire process, you’ll be equiped with the tools and insights you need to make an informed and data-driven decision on your new vendor. 

Step 1

Alignment Meeting

We kick off the project with a workshop designed to help your team formulate and define the key selection criteria.

Step 2

Market Scan

Through in-depth market research, we identify vendors who match your specific criteria for your RFP process.

Step 3

RFP Creation

We create a tailored RFP based on the study synopsis, selection criteria, and insights gathered in previous steps.

Step 4

RFP Analysis

After vendor responses are collected, we analyze and compare strategies, timelines, and cost structures to help you make better decisions.

Step 5

Bid Defense

We organize and facilitate your bid-defense meeting, where defined exercises ensure reliability from the vendor candidates.

Comprehensive knowledge of the CROs and industry best practices help you quickly and efficiently narrow the universe of vendors.
