- comparison of respondents
- more comparison of proponents
- sometimes proponents attach documents that are 'missing' when the information is viewed
- I've received so many complaints from proponents (over many RFPs) that they cannot use Ariba, it is not intuitive. Perhaps create user guides that are readily available for proponents who are less computer savvy
