RFP Candidate Evaluation
Gain the confidence that the partner you select will execute on your objectives.
No-nonsense advice you can put into action immediately, guaranteed.
You have a pivotal project in the pipeline
You’re breaking new ground. Your key stakeholders demand a best-in-class digital experience. You have a clear vision but need outside partners to help you execute. There are a lot of moving parts that need to work together seamlessly. This is a massive undertaking and you need to get it right on the first try.
Imagine operating with certainty
Imagine this - Imagine having truly expert insights into what’s being proposed to you. Imagine your initiative going off without a hitch. Imagine seeing your familiar old problems disappearing in the rear-view mirror. Imagine being confident that you have the right partners delivering the right solutions.
Add a seasoned development expert to your team
Operate with confidence - Often all it takes to avoid months of headaches and project delays is to have a clear understanding of proposal viability up front. Put the implementation uncertainties behind you. Solve problems before they appear. Book an RFP Candidate Evaluation with me today. Why?
- I have over a decade of experience developing Drupal applications
- I know the pitfalls that come from working with third-parties outside of your zone of confidence
- I understand how complex business requirements translate into concrete implementations
- I can effectively translate technical jargon to non-technical stakeholders
I'm not just a developer - In fact, I founded, architected, designed, copy-wrote, and developed a high-class, two-sided marketplace at Handcrafted. As well as an all-in-one dashboard for music teachers to manage their studios at CodaCal I know how to make visions visible, from soup to nuts.
Here’s how it works:
You’ll first schedule a brief call with me so that I can meet your team and get a sense of your initiative and how I can help. Once that's done then the rest of your process can continue as normal, with the added benefit of having me on the team to aid in prospect evaluation. I want to help make sure that the partner you select is most likely to execute on your objectives.
- If you have any questions about a particular proposal, I’m there to answer them.
- If you’re concerned about a team’s qualifications, I’m there to help evaluate the situation.
- If you’re questioning whether a solution is even possible, I’m there to clear the fog.

But don’t take my word for it…
Here’s what some folks I’ve worked with have said:
I worked with Matthew for years on a complex client project with very high visibility and he hit it out of the park at every opportunity. He doesn't just look problems in isolation. He sees everything through a forward-looking lens and knows how to arrange all of the moving parts in a way that is adaptable to change. Even better, he communicates it all in a way that non-developers can understand. I think that Matthew could solve just about anything thrown his way.
Matthew was extremely professional and helped us get our Drupal project off the ground. He is very knowledgeable and helped solve problems before they happened. When our project changed from v7 to v8 he was able to help us hit the ground running even though it was a fast and unexpected change.
I have had the pleasure of working with Matthew for the last 4+ years. Matthew has a wide range of skills that he has been able to use on our ongoing project. He is an outstanding communicator who can present his ideas and translate technical terms into easy to understand language so everyone is on the same page. He cares about the work he does and goes the extra mile to come up with ideas for the website or process changes that will benefit the business and the users who administer the system.
He has overseen our project's architecture and implemented development processes that are clear and easy to understand for the dev team. He always has a clear vision and looks for feedback from the rest of the team. He can easily take this feedback and translate it into product changes that satisfy business and user needs. Matthew is a professional in everything that he does.
I knew that Handcrafted had a lot of potential when Matthew told me about the idea, but I also knew it would take a lot to actually bring it to life. Shipping and country-wide sales tax considerations, financing, flexible commissions to sellers, payments based on somebody trialing an expensive instrument at home -- I mean, there's just a lot there. Matthew just sees how everything needs to fit together to come to life. As somebody who builds violins but not websites, I couldn't ask for a better partner.
Further client experience:
- Private // Global brand acquired for $1B+
- Private // $800M+ annual revenue organization servicing over 120 countries
- Private // 70-year-old non-profit, $25M+ revenue in 2016 in US and Canada
- Savvee Consulting // Works closely with the US federal government, including the SEC, DoD and DHS
- Jake's Fireworks // World's largest fireworks distributor
Still have questions?
Is it worth bringing somebody on just to help evaluate RFP candidates?
You’re likely spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on this initiative to build one of your company’s core drivers of value. Isn’t it worth putting a percentage of that toward ensuring that the rest of your funds are actually being spent effectively?
Why do I need you when I already have my own developers?
If you’re confident that your own team has the know-how to execute on your vision then you might not need me! However, the fact that you’ve put out an RFP means that you likely don’t have the resources to handle this initiative in-house and that you could benefit from my expertise.
How many of the submitted proposals will you read?
I'm happy to look at any specific proposals as requested.
Will you be a part of the actual implementation?
I will not be doing any of the actual implementation since this engagement extends to the evaluation/scoping stage of your initiative. I’m happy to stay on in an advisory capacity for the implementation, but it would be a separate engagement.
When is payment due?
Payment is due prior to our initial call.
Will you sign an NDA before we speak?
No. For an engagement as small as this, it makes little financial sense to get lawyers involved.
Who wrote this page anyway?
Hi, I'm Matthew Weiner! I can be seen below navigating my way through some jazz improvisation, but I spend most of my days solving tough problems. I've been a Drupal developer for roughly 12 years, maintain several modules on drupal.org, and am the founder-slash-everything-else at Handcrafted, a two-sided marketplace focused on making luthiers' (i.e. instrument makers') lives easier.
Things like customer confusion and bad design (visual, technical, or otherwise) literally keep me up at night. Are you the same way? If the answer is yes then I'll probably fit right in. 🙂
