5. Completed
6. Disqualified

The ‘Solutions’ tab gives you an overview of your software selection. The selection process is divided into six clearly defined phases. This means you can always see where you stand and what's next.

1. Options

Here you can see all the solutions that have been added to your initiative - from the internal IT portfolio or the market.

2. Provider contacted

You have contacted one or more providers within the solution cards via ‘Provider contact’ ‘Contact’. The providers will be notified to process your requests.

Moving solution cards to other columns does not automatically result in notifications being sent to the solution providers.

3. Provider is answering

The provider has accepted your enquiry and is starting to respond to your requirements. You can see the progress directly in the solution overview.

4. Evaluation

All the answers are available - now you can evaluate the solution. The basis for this can be demos, references or your overall impression of the solution in addition to the pure answers from the providers. Queries and additional requirements are still possible.

5. Completed

The internal evaluation has been completed, all points have been clarified. The decision in favour of or against software can be made now that all the information has been collected. Move the solution to this phase.

6. Disqualified

If a solution does not meet your requirements, move it to this phase.
