AMS RFP Shell

Description

This RFP Shell has been used successfully dozens of times on behalf of Effective Database Management’s clients. Over the years, several vendors have said this is the most effective and thorough RFP they’ve ever received.

“The RFP Shell might be the best purchase we have ever made. We got over $500 worth of new ideas we would have never thought of otherwise.” — Kevin Ketchum, National Hardwood Lumber Association

“I love the shell. Things I never would have thought of are here. It’s great, especially for me — only three staff with the other staff inexperienced with AMS and lots of other “#1 priorities” to handle at the same time.” — Donna French Dunn, Association of YMCA Professionals

“Without the assistance of Wes’ RFP Shell we would have been lost in regards to our search for a new AMS vendor. It was just a couple of days after receiving returned RFPs that we had an obvious answer for our association needs. Thank you, Wes, your RFP Shell really made the comparison/decision making process easy.” — Teri Carden, Florida Society of Association Executives
