Common questions

Designed to fit the decision you already have.

Does this replace our procurement or RFP software?

No. It is a focused expert review for one purchase and can sit alongside email, spreadsheets or an existing sourcing platform.

Can you review only one proposal?

Yes. A single-proposal review focuses on pricing structure, scope gaps, commercial risks and negotiation questions.

Do you provide legal advice?

No. Contract language can be organized and flagged for discussion, but legal interpretation and approval remain with qualified counsel.

What categories work best?

Technology, software implementation, marketing, staffing, property services and other complex indirect-service purchases are strong fits.

Have proposals in hand?

Get a clearer answer before the signature.

Start with a short conversation about the purchase, deadline and suppliers involved. Do not send confidential documents through the public demo.
