Corporate RFP

Collaboration and accountability.

Most products in the industry provide an effective means to collect hotel profile and rate information, which is then "mapped" to the various RFP formats. But it's what you do with the data beyond responding to the RFP that makes the difference between simply submitting a standard file versus improving your sales year-over-year.

Performance measured is performance improved.

Corporate RFP offers a superior level of reporting, so you can track hotel participation in the RFP process and their success in getting accepted to programs. It also enables analysis by sales manager— who are the shining stars that see the solicitations through to the finish? And those valued 3rd party vendors— are you tracking the activity and benefit of your relationship with them?

Renegotiations are also managed within the application, ensuring that a clear audit of the bids and counter-bids are kept on record. How effective is your sales team in the renegotiation process and what are the "hot button" items your clients ask hotels to reconsider?

When a hotel is not included in a program they feel they should be in, Corporate RFP Target Corporation enables them to present a business case to the regional account manager that will improve their chance of participation. Before the season begins, Corporate RFP enables you to survey your hotels for their input, providing you with local intelligence that can be shared with your client and grow your solicitation lists.

Geoff Andrew, Managing Director here: Back in Denver to meet with our ace IT guys. I was feeling very smug having found a really cheap flight...then had the smile wiped from my face when forced to pay $200/night for a Super 8. Apparently a nice young man called Mr Obama was also in town with a few friends and hotel rooms were at a premium. The only super thing about the Super 8 was its location about 300 yards from our ...
