Qorus Software gives UK Bid and Proposal Managers first look at easier way to create Sales Proposals

LONDON - Oct. 23, 2013 - PRLog -- Qorus Software, provider of document automation solutions for Microsoft Office and SharePoint, will be exhibiting at the UK APMP (Association of Proposal Management Professionals) 11th Annual Conference on 23^rd and 24^th October 2013 at the Four Pillars Hotel in the Cotswold Water Park, United Kingdom. The annual event is Europe’s largest gathering of Bid and Proposal Management professionals. Qorus Software will be providing conference attendees with a preview of the latest version of their Proposal Automation and RFP Collaboration solution, Qorus Breeze Proposals version 2.1, due out for official release to market on the 11th of November 2013.

Qorus Breeze Proposals is built on the proven Qorus DocGeneration framework, the company’s document automation solution for Microsoft SharePoint that has been at the core of clients’ document based business processes since 2008.

Qorus Breeze Proposals adds sales process specific functionality to this robust framework, such as RFP (Request for Proposal) collaboration features, a content library, an innovative “shopping basket” called Proposal Cart for building customized proposals from approved, re-usable sales content, and a social widget that enables users to suggest good content for inclusion in the content library and future re-use.  Qorus Breeze Proposals works with Microsoft SharePoint, Microsoft Word and PowerPoint, and integrates with leading CRM systems and other enterprise systems to dynamically import live data and content into sales templates.

Version 2.1 of Qorus Breeze Proposals will make proposal creation easier and faster through the addition of wizards that will guide users through the creation of their proposals. The new Guided Proposal Cart wizard extends existing Proposal Cart functionality to guide users during the selection of content from the sales content library to assemble a proposal document. The new Quick Start wizard makes the proposal creation process faster by bundling pre-defined steps and components required for specific types of proposals, or projects, and enabling users to create a pre-defined Proposal Cart to generate an initial document in just a few clicks.

Other new features focus on simplifying task management and template management, improving workflow, and making the suggestion, approval and submission of new sales content into the sales content library easier.

“This is our third year at UK APMP and the second consecutive year we are providing attendees with a sneak preview of an upcoming release,” says Paul Rollason, UK Country Manager. “We are fortunate that the event once again precedes another major release, because it enables us to gather feedback from a very influential and knowledgeable community before we finalise our messaging to our user community and to the greater market around this new release.”

Qorus Software is a Silver Corporate Sponsor of APMP and a now a regular sponsor of and exhibitor at APMP annual conferences in the US, United Kingdom and South Africa.

“We look forward to this event every year and see it as an opportunity to connect, or re-connect, with members of the Bid and Proposal Management community in the United Kingdom. It also gives us the opportunity to gather insightful feedback and ideas for making Qorus Breeze Proposals their preferred solution for the creation of proposals and for the collaboration on RFPs ,”
concludes Rollason.

Qorus Software will be exhibiting at stand #7 at the 11th Annual UK APMP 2013 on 23^rd and 24^th October 2013 at the Four Pillars Hotel in the Cotswold Water Park, United Kingdom. For more information on the conference, please visit: http://conference2013.apmpuk.co.uk/
