There are thousands of business technology vendors on the market today, many of whom are actively targeting the law firm sector. How can you cut through the clutter to select the right ones for your firm?
At Calibrate, we recognize the challenges in identifying viable vendors, validating competing claims and ensuring that solutions fit with your processes and culture. Our knowledge of the market – combined with our human-centered and hands-on approach – ensures that we can quickly deliver a solid recommendation to your law firm.
A Deep Dive on Your Business Requirements
Calibrate uses a rigorous methodology to identify and evaluate suitable marketing technology vendors for our clients:
- We start with a discovery phase, during which we will interview selected firm stakeholders. The deliverable will be a business case for a solution and a roadmap for building the firm’s capability, including technology, process and people.
- We use our proven methodology to create detailed business requirements for a solution. These requirements will be translated into a formal request for proposals. Based on our knowledge of the market we will recommend appropriate vendors to be considered.
- We act as central point of contact for the vendors who will be asked to submit bids. We interview reference customers to validate claims. Our final deliverable is a scored matrix rating the vendors’ capabilities to meet each of your requirements.

”“When our legacy CRM vendor sunsetted their product, we were in a difficult position. Calibrate helped us understand the CRM options available for law firms in the market. They designed and led an in-depth review process to identify our business requirements and match us with vendors who could meet them. At the same time, they gave us invaluable insights on the structure and composition of our marketing/BD team that we have since implemented with their help.”
