Frequently Asked Questions

Find immediate, detailed details regarding our procurement, evaluation, and sourcing advisory services.

How does software procurement consulting work?

We act as your objective advisory team. We review your organizational requirements, evaluate potential technologies, compare quotes from vendors, normalize licensing models (checking Core, Seat, or CPU metrics), and help compile documentation for final acquisition. We represent your interests, not the vendors.

Do you sell software directly?

No, Fiable Technologies is an independent, vendor-neutral technology consulting and procurement advisory company. We do not act as an authorized partner, reseller, or distributor for Microsoft, Adobe, VMware, Veeam, Oracle, or any other vendor. This independence allows us to analyze software, sizing, and pricing models without conflict of interest.

Can you help compare multiple vendors?

Yes. We draft detailed evaluation tables that compare software features, security standards (SOC 2, ISO 27001), privacy requirements (PIPEDA/HIPA), integration APIs, support SLAs, and pricing models side-by-side.

Do you support public sector procurement?

Yes. We assist municipal governments, school boards, health networks, and public institutions. We support with RFP planning, compiling technical specifications, defining objective grading systems, and evaluating vendor bid responses.

Can you assist with software renewals?

Yes. We conduct renewal sizing audits to check if you have purchased redundant seat quotas (shelfware). We review renewal contracts to identify price escalators and coordinate strategies to size agreements to match actual usage.

Can you help evaluate cloud platforms?

Yes. We analyze infrastructure, network bandwidth, SLA configurations, and discount options (like Reserved Instances and Savings Plans) across Microsoft Azure, AWS, and GCP.

Can you assist with RFP planning?

Yes. We collaborate with internal procurement stakeholders to draft clear technical parameters, setup vendor questions, establish bid criteria, and ensure RFP transparency.
