Sant TeamWorks Provides Powerful Team Collaboration Environment for Sant Customers


CINCINNATI, Feb. 23 -- The Sant Corporation, a world leader in proposal and sales document automation software, today announces the release of Sant TeamWorks(TM), a web-based application providing sales and bid management professionals the power to manage all sales opportunity documents from initial creation to final approval. Sant TeamWorks facilitates end-to- end collaboration by enabling aggregation, organization, and search capabilities for individuals, teams, and information.

Sant TeamWorks has a transparent integration with Sant Suite(TM) providing businesses with a complete solution to manage document projects. Document versioning, approvals, check in / check out, and publishing advances document, project, and task management. Additionally, Sant TeamWorks enables users to easily find and enlist individuals, teams, and existing best practices-rather than reinvent the wheel with each project.

Sheryl Kingstone, senior analyst with the Yankee Group, says businesses are seeking end-to-end solutions to manage their sales documents. "Successful businesses understand they can increase sales by automating and improving sales documents, but they also want to manage the entire lifecycle of these documents. TeamWorks fills this gap by providing a portal for sales and marketing professionals to manage unique processes and finished documents."

Out-of-the-box configuration to create and manage projects is a key feature of Sant TeamWorks. Sales / marketing documents, forms, past proposals, and various content files are easily accessed from the Sant TeamWorks libraries. Its open interface supports corporate look and feel modeling with the incorporation of screen parts such as a welcome message, announcement / events listings, and quick links to websites and web-based applications.

"For years we have helped businesses improve proposal win rates and our success in this industry is unrivaled. We foresee Sant TeamWorks increasing business effectiveness by providing a comprehensive solution to manage entire projects associated with proposals, RFPs, and other sales documents," said Lewis Miller, President, The Sant Corporation. "This product also provides an avenue of business expansion into the professional services marketplace for companies needing to manage statements of work, project plans, and other complex documents."

Miller understands that innovation has been the key to Sant's success in the industry. "In 1992, Sant developed the first proposal automation system for AT&T's mid-market sales team. We were the first to incorporate team collaboration for RFP responses in 1998. That same year, we introduced the first web-based proposal automation system that has evolved into an innovative thin client web application. Today, we are first to announce an end-to-end solution for sales and bid management professionals to manage all sales opportunity documents. Innovation is the most exciting aspect of our business and we will continue to lead the way."
