Let’s face it – RFI/RFP documents sent over to learning system vendors are massive tomes that confuse, challenge and even baffle some vendors. Then you have RFP/RFIs that lack substance. The fact of the matter is nobody loves creating RFP/RFIs. They can be 25 pages. 50 pages, even 100 pages or more.

After all, the buyer has limited knowledge, generally speaking, of the trends to look at, what learning tech is in a system, why X or Y doesn’t make sense for adding in a system (not in 2024), and why you must look to the future. I’m not saying that people lack knowledge here. It’s not me – it is you.

A vendor should be able to provide this information, it may take a few days for them to get back to you, but trust me when I say this, knowing how the machine learning was trained is huge. Vendors tend not to share that info, unless it is in an RFP and even then, I’ve seen plenty who say, “All”, really?

6) Request for Proposal (RFP). With this kind of scale and cost, traditional LMS vendors need a strong, active sales team to develop a trusted relationship and seal the deal. It follows this linear path: 1) Requirements Definition. 2) Vendor Identification. 3) Discovery. 4) Preliminary Demonstrations. 5) Vendor Qualification.

You are willing to spend a lot of time, completing this RFI/RFP, responding to – in some cases – more than 25 pages of this and that; willing to answer perhaps a litany of questions and the pricing – oh that price. . And if your mind is saying one thing, trust me, the mind is usually right. . Yes, you are a loser.

As with any LMS there are standard features seen in the K-12 LMS space, thus rather than 10% differential, it might be up to 15%, but trust me, for many systems it is the usual 10% differential from the common standards.

Then the prospect (you) places a timeframe when the RFP has to be returned, ignoring the fact that by having an extensive RFP and many questions that are not honestly relevant to what you want OR are so vague, a vendor says, “yes” to everything. I get them from Trust Radius all the time. Who has that much time?
