One buying tool we recommend when shopping around for a new eLearning platform is the Request for Proposal (RFP), which can be utilized to streamline and simplify the purchase process. By using an RFP you can: Organize and prioritize your business needs and desired solutions. Leverage your current platform.

L&D teams use it when building solutions to communicate learning activity within and between learning systems. For instance, to access a list of third-party courses from within their company-approved LMS, L&D teams would design, build, test, and integrate their own customized solutions into the learning platform.

Consider a fixed-gear track bike without brakes. A Good RFP The best RFPs consist of a list of required features, typically in a spreadsheet, and an easy way for the vendor to mark `Yes’ or ‘No’ next to each requirement to identify which features are present or absent in their product. Are you three years old?

Too Much Focus on Learning Management Systems as the Only Education Technology A question all instructional designers (and learning teams) need to ask themselves in 2024 is “What is our learning software doing for us?”. Maybe, then, it’s time for L&D teams to be a bit selfish and think about their own needs.

2) With so many learning systems, how do you keep track of them all? That’s why we communicate requirements in a structured request for proposal (RFP). If qualified vendors want to be considered, they must reply to the RFP in full. 6) Can we choose the right LMS without issuing a formal RFP? It’s an art and a science.

Before you even think about creating a request for proposal (RFP), you must spend time on the LMS requirements gathering and analysis process. If you don’t get it right, you won’t create a useful RFP or select the best LMS for your association. Definitely have someone from IT on your core project team.

And the stakes are high because, according to Fosway’s Digital Learning Realities research , 51% of L&D teams think their current learning platforms are not fit for the modern workforce. Most systems will tick many of the boxes on an RFP document, however, how they do it will differ depending on their primary focus. Your budget.

Throughout the process, it’s critical to make sure you and your team emphasize what really matters to you and your company. Levels of Engagement The levels of engagement you seek from vendors will depend on whether you’re working with an RFI (request for information), RFP (request for a proposal), or an RFQ (request for a quotation).
