12 Charity Engine Recommended items to provide Vendors during a Nonprofit CRM Request for Proposal
Too often when nonprofits do Requests for Proposals for a Fundraising CRM or fundraising technology, they end up creating a Features Checklist Spreadsheet with four different types of feature/capabilities:
- Already have.
- Wish we had.
- Heard about & sounds cool.
- So brilliant we should apply for a patent.
Unfortunately, RFP’s by checklist can lead to incomplete decisions because the right solution for that org was never proposed. There are capabilities and ideas that people wouldn’t know to think of without knowing the full capacity of a technology product.
In this Charity Engine Guide, learn about 12 items you want to be able to provide the vendor, and how to prepare you and your team for a Nonprofit CRM Request for Proposal.
