6 interactive self tests to check, guide and optimise your responses to RFPs.

The art and science of responding to tenders

So, how can this help me?

Consistent & coordinated responses


By helping my project managers
simply organise their responses.

Better time management



By picking my battles and
by drafting more efficiently.

Better win rate

(up to 300 % improvement)

With an interactive overview of the current, won and lost tenders.

On paper, it looks great... but what happens in the field?

Efficiency, of course, depends on the industry sectors and on the companies, but in average, the win rates improvement ranges from +15% to +300%(!) in public sector, from +15% to 90% in industry (aeronautics, metallurgy, IT...), from +10% to +125% in banking-insurance and from +20% to +150% in services.


By the way, efficiency means profit.
Short demo:

Imagine I have 10 users each one responding to a €20k tender every other month...

As a group, we respond to €1.2m worth tenders per year.

Let’s say we have a 20% win rate (we win 1 tender out of 5).

With raology, my win rate will increase by at least 10% (i.e. 22% here): I earn €24k more in a year, reaching the breakeven point in as little as 3 months for a Team package*.

How on earth could I have missed it?

Simply because this methodology has been first implemented only with a small circle of large private companies and public institutions (hence the field feedback). The good news is that the current online platform has been developed for a wider audience, allowing any company to improve its sales performances.

And how much is it?
