A Community-Based Approach to Vendor Selection

<aside> đź’ˇ

The Only HR Tech Advisor That Puts You First

In HR technology selection, one vital perspective is consistently overlooked: the daily users of these platforms.

While vendor marketing, promises, and consultant recommendations often drive purchasing decisions, the insights of hands-on-keyboard practitioners—those who navigate these systems daily—are frequently sidelined. These professionals intimately understand both the capabilities and limitations of HR platforms, yet their expertise rarely influences the selection process.

RFP Advisor bridges this gap by connecting you with experienced system administrators who have firsthand knowledge of the challenges and opportunities these solutions present. We deliver practical, unbiased guidance that prioritizes your organization's specific needs—because successful HR technology selection should be shaped by real-world expertise, not sales pitches.

How RFP Advisor Works

  1. Tell us your needs. Share which HR platforms you're considering.
  2. We find the experts. We search our member database to identify professionals with direct experience implementing and managing these systems.
  3. We assemble your advisory group. We match you with qualified experts, aligning with your company size and industry whenever possible.
  4. Your fee supports expertise. The fee compensates these practitioners for their insights and guidance.
  5. No vendor influence. Our strict no-kickback policy ensures that neither SAI nor our members accept vendor payments or referral fees, guaranteeing truly unbiased recommendations.

This transparent approach ensures you receive real-world insights from experienced professionals, while also ensuring fair compensation for their expertise.
