Leading Resolutions proposed a fully collaborative plan of action based on our standard 5 step RFP methodology – discovery, market sounding, RFP management, evaluation and selection. The initial discovery activity scoped the project, capturing the requirements of the business and identifying future improvements such as packing automation to speed up throughput and maximise warehouse efficiency moving from hanging to greater flat pack capacity.

We then reviewed the current market to define the long list of vendors for an appropriate, configurable digital warehouse management solution. This long list was evaluated using pre-agreed key criteria which covered approach, products, perceived success and ongoing services to form the vendor short list. In parallel, we looked at the potential of using third party logistics providers and, following the decision by Quiz to keep this in house, used this information to help us rank the short list.

Leading Resolutions created the RFP documents and engaged with the vendors on behalf of Quiz.  In collaboration with the internal team, we evaluated the RFP submissions of the 4 shortlisted vendors using a balanced score card to assess support, integration, commercials and ongoing improvement) selecting 2 vendors to move to the showcase stage.

Following the vendors presentations comprising detailed functional demos, project plan review and commercials, the preferred vendor was selected, and Leading Resolutions took control of the commercial and contract negotiations and began mobilisation planning.
