SayPro Templates to Use:

Proposal Submission Log: A document used to track the progress of each proposal, the status of the compliance check, and final submission details

Purpose:

The Proposal Submission Log is an essential document designed to track the progress of each proposal that is being submitted through SayPro. It serves as a central record for all proposals, from the initial drafting to the final submission, and ensures all required steps are followed. This log will also include the status of the compliance check and the final submission details, providing an organized overview of the entire proposal process.

Key Components:

1. Proposal ID:
   • A unique identifier assigned to each proposal for easy tracking and reference.
2. Client/Project Name:
   • The name of the client or project associated with the proposal.
3. Submission Deadline:
   • The date by which the proposal needs to be submitted to the client or tendering body.
4. Proposal Stage:
   • The current stage of the proposal, such as drafting, review, or ready for submission.
5. Compliance Check Status:
   • A status field that tracks whether the proposal has been through a compliance check to ensure that it meets all the necessary requirements, criteria, and guidelines outlined by the SayPro Tenders, Bidding, Quotations, and Proposals Office.
6. Compliance Check Passed (Yes/No):
   • A clear indication of whether the proposal has passed the compliance check. This is essential to ensure that the proposal aligns with the SayPro Marketing Royalty SCMR requirements.
7. Remarks/Issues:
   • A section to record any issues or challenges that have arisen during the proposal process, such as missing documentation, non-compliance with certain conditions, or additional client requests.
8. Final Submission Date:
   • The actual date when the proposal was submitted to the client or relevant party.
9. Submission Confirmation:
   • A field to note the confirmation received from the client or organization confirming that the proposal was received. This can be in the form of an email or official letter.
10. Assigned Personnel:
    • The names of individuals responsible for creating, reviewing, and submitting the proposal.

Purpose of the Compliance Check:

The compliance check ensures that each proposal adheres to all rules, regulations, and guidelines outlined by SayPro’s Tenders, Bidding, Quotations, and Proposals Office. This includes ensuring the proposal meets:

• Formatting standards
• Required documentation
• Eligibility criteria
• Deadline adherence
• Pricing transparency
• Terms and conditions compliance

A comprehensive compliance check helps prevent errors or omissions that could lead to the disqualification of the proposal or potential conflicts with clients.

SayPro Monthly Compliance Check (SCMR-1)

Purpose:

The SayPro Monthly Compliance Check (SCMR-1) is a regular assessment performed by the SayPro team to ensure that all proposals meet the necessary standards and are in line with SayPro’s internal guidelines. This is particularly focused on marketing royalty SCMR as it pertains to the monthly review of all proposals and submissions.

Process:

1. Proposal Review:
   • The SayPro team reviews all proposals that have been submitted within the month to ensure they comply with the internal guidelines, rules, and standards. This includes reviewing every section of the proposal, checking the clarity of the terms, ensuring the pricing model is accurate, and verifying that all required documentation is present.
2. Compliance Tracking:
   • Each proposal is marked for compliance based on the SayPro’s criteria, which are derived from the Tenders, Bidding, Quotations, and Proposals Office standards. Non-compliant proposals are flagged for correction before the final submission.
3. Feedback/Improvement Suggestions:
   • Any areas of improvement or compliance issues identified during the monthly check are communicated to the proposal team. This could involve modifying proposals, including missing documentation, or adjusting specific terms to align better with the proposal guidelines.
4. Monthly Reporting:
   • A monthly report is generated summarizing the status of all proposals that were reviewed in that period, including compliance successes, areas of concern, and recommendations for the following month.

Monitoring and Final Review:

• The SayPro Tenders, Bidding, Quotations, and Proposals Office ensures that the monthly SCMR-1 process results in a high level of accuracy and alignment with corporate goals. It provides a detailed report on whether the proposals meet all compliance standards, such as:
  • Timeliness
  • Document completeness
  • Regulatory adherence
  • Terms of submission

Integration with Marketing Royalty SCMR:

• The compliance check also ensures alignment with the SayPro Marketing Royalty SCMR framework, which provides detailed instructions regarding how marketing royalty terms should be structured in the proposals. It includes checking that the royalty percentages, clauses, and payment structures are consistent with SayPro’s marketing policies and objectives.
