New Term
During a recent discussion with a proposal team, one member struggled quite a bit before he was able to articulate a question he wanted to ask. He just couldn’t find the right words. The question was whether a particular aspect of our offer could or would be evaluated and if so, what kind of weighting it might receive from the evaluators.I realized we needed a new term for just such a situation and offered for the team’s consideration and future use, “evaluweightable”.
Evaluweightable. Adj. “Is our being able to implement the solution in significantly less time than requested within the RFP evaluweightable?”
Feel free to use this when and where appropriate.
Have a favorite new term of your own? Please let us know. Perhaps we’ll start a glossary.

“Simplementation” – our ability to simply/seamlessly implement our product for you. : )
I like it …and will definitely be using this new term. I’m actually surprised this isn’t already a commonly used word.
