“From the time we bought our Sourcing Dojo licence, to the time we had the RFP up and running, it was 24 hours. I couldn’t imagine doing anything faster than that.”
“The success was apparent almost right away. Members of the group went from being able to run maybe 1 or 2 RFPs at once, to a handful of them simultaneously within weeks. It has really enabled the team to impact a lot more of the business.”
