Proposal Management

Governments that cast a wide net gather ideas or proposals for consideration as candidate capital projects, need planning space to capture, evaluate and communicate decions about these projects to a variety of audiences.  
Theses audience may include :

• Local residents
• Capital Improvement Committees
• Bond Election Committees
• Departmental staff
• Management
• Council members
• Board members
• Other constituents

The Proposal Management Module in CIPAce™ serves as that planning space facilitating the management of all project proposals or ideas throughout the entire lifecycle of your agencies capital program.  

Proposal with Workflow Engine

CIPAce™ Proposal Management Module is built upon the CIPAce™ Workflow Engine framework, allowing workflows process and status notification along each step of the process. For example:

• Configuration of a proposal evaluation process tailored to your organizations structure with either concurrent or sequential evaluation and approval by multiple levels
• Conversions of an approved proposal to a candidate project is automatically processed under the Project Management module
• Easy linkage of a capital and approved project idea or proposal to one or more project candidates.  
• Communication of project approval or linkage via email to every capital project proposer.  Enabling a transparent communication of the capital program development process even to public proposers.

Proposal/Idea Archive

CIPAce™ Proposal Management Module can archive every project idea ever proposed by anyone. A central repository, thus allowing your organization to justify the decisions that are made years later.
