The challenge A small EAM consulting and technology firm wanted to compete for public-sector work, where most contracts are won through formal RFPs. It had no proposal function at all.

The challenge One of the top IT staffing firms in the country needed more applications flowing into its ATS. Its talent network ran on a bolt-on, out-of-the-box solution that didn't integrate well with Bullhorn, so candidate data came in incomplete and recruiters couldn't easily market to the people who had already raised their hand. The firm was paying to attract talent it couldn't fully use or re-market to. The approach Kady started by sourcing and evaluating talent network
