For contact centre and CCaaS partners
Contact centre RFPs, answered from your own evidence
Contact centre (contact center) modernisation RFPs run to hundreds of functional requirements — routing, IVR, WFM, QM, reporting, integrations, languages. Reqify Bids reads them into a compliance matrix with a fit code on every row, drafts the response from your own library, and asks your experts where it has no proof.

Why contact centre RFPs eat a partner’s week
Whether the buyer is moving to Genesys Cloud, NICE CXone, Five9, Amazon Connect, Dynamics 365 Contact Center, Twilio Flex or Talkdesk, the RFP looks much the same: a long functional requirements list, usually in a spreadsheet, plus narrative sections on approach, migration, training and support. Every row needs an honest answer about whether the platform does it out of the box, with configuration, with custom work, with a third-party product, on the roadmap — or not at all.
That fit-gap call is where bids go wrong. A row answered “Standard” that is really a customisation becomes a change request after go-live. A language, a channel or an integration nobody checked becomes a delivery problem the team inherits from the sales cycle.
And the proposal narrative still has to be written: the migration plan, the cut-over approach, the team and the references — usually by the same few people who are also running live projects.
How Reqify Bids handles a contact centre bid
Choose contact centre modernisation as the bid’s sector and Reqify tunes how it reads the pack. Every requirement — including rows in the buyer’s Excel requirements list — is quoted word for word in the compliance matrix and checked against the source, with sheet and cell for spreadsheet rows.
On contact centre bids the matrix has a Fit column: Standard, Configuration, Customisation, Third-party, Roadmap or Not available. Set each row’s fit and download the fit-gap workbook — a branded Excel file of the requirements grouped by fit code, with a summary sheet of the counts. The bid / no-bid scorecard adds contact-centre criteria such as platform partnerships and certified staff.
Proposal sections are drafted from your approved content library and the bid project, with a checked citation behind every paragraph. When the library says one thing and the RFP asks for another — English and Spanish in your case study, English and French in the buyer’s requirement — the draft raises an “SME needed” ask instead of guessing. When you win, requirements marked fit Not available land in the Statement of Work’s exclusions.

Standard, Configuration, Customisation, Third-party, Roadmap or Not available — set in the matrix, filtered and bulk-assigned.
Fit-gap workbook
Requirements grouped by fit code in a branded Excel workbook, with a summary sheet of the counts.
Gaps asked, not guessed
A language, channel or integration your sources don’t support becomes an SME ask naming exactly what is missing.

The buyer’s requirements workbook
Excel questionnaires filled in a copy of the buyer’s own file, with formula cells, dropdowns and formatting kept.
Exclusions that survive the win

Contact centre RFP FAQ
Do you integrate with Genesys, NICE, Five9 or Amazon Connect?+
No — and you don’t need to for a bid. Reqify reads the buyer’s RFP and your own content library; the platform names here are examples of what contact centre RFPs ask about, not integrations.
What are fit codes?+
A per-requirement judgement of how the proposed solution meets it: Standard (out of the box), Configuration, Customisation, Third-party, Roadmap or Not available. The Fit column appears on IT and contact centre bids, and the fit-gap workbook groups requirements by it.
Can I try it on a contact centre RFP without uploading one?+
Yes. The sample bid is a fictional utility’s contact-centre RFP with every tab filled in — matrix, drafts, reviews, forms and submission. It is free on every plan, including the free trial, and uses none of your documents.
Our requirements list is an Excel file. Does that work?+
Yes. Excel packs are read row by row, each requirement points to its sheet and cell, and the buyer’s workbook can be filled in a copy of their own file with formulas, dropdowns and formatting kept.
Which plans include Bids?+
Professional includes 1 active bid at a time, Team 5 and Enterprise unlimited. The first read of a bid uses 10 documents from your plan’s allowance and is refunded if the run fails.
