Concept Viability

Benefits for customers and suppliers

Flaws in proposals can be highlighted without companies feeling that their position in the procurement is threatened.

What are the benefits for the customer?

Concepts that are not technically feasible, are flawed or high-risk will be identified as such at an early stage, thereby informing the client of these pitfalls before investment has been made in the concept.

The process:

• is quick and provides useful insights into possible solutions
• helps to create intelligent clients by giving easy access to supplier expertise
• helps to ensure that no initiative dependent on new IT is announced before an analysis of the risks and options for implementation has taken place
• informs any subsequent work on feasibility or proof of concept, but is not intended to replace these activities

What are the benefits for the supplier?

Flaws in proposals can be highlighted without companies feeling that their position in the procurement is threatened.

Where innovative solutions are required, emerging technologies can be discussed along with a frank dialogue of the risks incurred.

Suppliers can decide at an early stage whether they intend to bid for this work, thereby saving significant time and financial resources.
