GLS Legal RFP Template Assistance™
Improve the quality of your legal RFP procedures
The Problem
Getting accurate, comparable and reliable quotes back from external counsel is not easy.
Related challenges include:
- RFP preparation is time consuming and seems to generate far too much work
- deficiencies in your RFP will impact the quality of the responses that you get
- getting quotes from multiple providers makes sense but it does compound your work load
- responding to multiple queries from multiple counsel is massively time consuming
- Law Firms include so much irrelevant material in their responses
- doing a straight line comparison across counsels’ quotations is all but impossible
- many in your business still succumb to “click bait” quotations with unrealistic assumptions
You know the quality of your RFP will drive the quality and efficiency of your external engagement – but the process is extremely time consuming. If only someone could take care of it for you...
