Dozens of humans trying to get to the beach late in the day, and blocking traffic in doing so. After all, your learners are engaging in some manner with the content, not as a learning experience – which you know my dogs do when they bark at anyone or anything near my house. . Yeah it is a peeve of mine, which is why, I decided that LEPs needed their own RFP template. I know what you are thinking – how does this relate to his above story? I know.

But preparing RFP responses can be brutal – especially if you blow it with unforced errors. I know, because I’ve been on both sides of the evaluation table. What’s Wrong With This RFP Response? You rally your team and spend many hours developing an RFP response. You know your product is a contender and you deserve a shot at closing the deal. So why are you losing at the RFP stage? But vendors have more control over RFP outcomes than you may think.

I thought I’d share some of the best “do’s and don’ts” from the recent sessions. LMS Demo Do’s. After receiving the vendor RFP responses and confirming we were only evaluating highly qualified partner options, we invited the four vendors in each opportunity onsite to present their company and solution. The best of the eight asked the audience to introduce themselves individually and reveal one thing most people don’t know about them. How do you measure that?

Do: Identify your organization’s primary learning solution need. Whatever your reason, try to get clear and specific on what the problem in your organization is, the missing gap that you’re looking to fill. Do: Take time to prepare for your conversation with the vendor.

Typically, this is done through a “Request-for-Information” (RFI) process or through a “Request-for-Proposal” (RFP). At this stage you will likely come across some gaps and open questions. Now it is time to find the answer to those gaps so you have a full understanding of how each of the potential solutions will match your needs. Identify the gaps in each of the systems and assess them against your requirements. Where do you draw the line?

So allow me to do that now. I’m talking about things like writing up an RFP, or a response letter, or creating a presentation, or responding to a live query. What they then could do was listen to a model response as well as their response. This isn’t something you’d likely do straight off; you’d probably scaffold the learning with simple tasks first.

Your sales team recently crafted a strong proposal in response to an LMS RFP , and the buyer has given your company a thumbs up. 2) Do your research. I know a rep who generated excitement with prospects with “intro demos” but he refused to prep with a sales consultant. For example: Update discovery findings – One of the biggest mistakes you can make is assuming that research from the RFP phase is still accurate in the demo phase.

Why, Oh Why do I lose the love? I know, I know it is never your fault (client) – its those nasty LMS vendors, but as with the failure to recognize, often more than not it is duality, at least at some level. Hate is a strong word, and many consumers (clients) rarely say it out loud, but if your system isn’t doing what you were promised and the calls from your learners are coming in OR worse they aren’t using it because of these issues – you are mad.

This is due to “the never do this”, that folks end up doing. So, to ensure you do not fall down the rabbit hole early in the process, never do the following (no matter how tempting it is). Do NOT.

But there’s definitely a gap. We know it’s been there and we’ve talked about it for years, especially in the software industry. Great idea to fill that gap with a community by and for customer education pros… A lot of us find ourselves kind of falling into this field. We know education is essential. But unlike corporate training professionals who are instructional designers by trade, many of us don’t know where to start.

Workforce management is vague and ambiguous enough to do well in 2020, albeit for learning it would seem to me that workforce enlightenment would be better suited, unless you plan to incorporate additional HCM functions into your learning system, which of course, will place you completely into the segment of SuccessFactors, Cornerstone, SumTotal, Saba Cloud, Talentsoft among others. If your system isn’t doing content curation, then, well, you are going to flounder.

Nothing ever comes out well when such a gap is appearing and continues. To solve the issue, various vendors have gone the active/inactive route but do it, by you paying for seats up front.

However, I always have to remember that plenty of systems do not go out and seek raising funds/receiving funds from Private Equity firms, VCs and alike. . But what you do not see is their burn rate, nor their financials in the end before being acquired. I know of vendors whose burn rates are well, bad, but who are seen by folks as darlings. I see the system best suited for SMB, although the do support large enterprises too.
