IN THE APPLICATION
What you do in the application
Step 1
Describe the challenge
The Technology Challenge wizard has eight steps. The first step sets the project's maturity, which decides the required fields. You add the description, requirements, budget, files and operational assumptions, and check a preview before publication.


Step 2
Publish it
A published challenge shows an executive summary, the budget range and the deadlines for concepts and offers. Details appear in separate views before and after the standard mutual NDA is signed with DocuSign. A Q&A tab collects follow-up questions.


Step 3
Review concepts
Integrators answer with concepts. You filter them by status and challenge and build a shortlist. A concept can refer to products from technology suppliers' catalogs.


Step 4
Compare offers
Offers come in one standard format. Each one is linked to its challenge and concept and lists delivery time, warranty, payment terms, installation, training and support, so scope, price and terms sit side by side.


Step 5
Follow open items
The dashboard shows accepted concepts and offers, items waiting for review, the challenge pipeline and pending tasks. From an accepted offer you can generate a contract, review it and send it for signing. Meetings have their own section.

What it costs

- Publishing challenges, receiving concepts and offers and comparing them costs nothing.
