No Structured Approach

Leon Grosse, faced several frustrating challenges that echo through the construction industry. For example, inconsistent offers and a lot of time wasted with inefficient tools.

  • Inconsistent Offers. “There were as many different types of offer as there were agencies, good ideas here and there but no structured approach,” said Elisabeth MORIZE, Marketing Project Manager
  • Wasted Time. “Copywriters were wasting a lot of time, particularly in Word, copying and pasting from previous offers, with all the attendant risks of unsatisfactory results.”
  • Multiple Versions. “There are no more multiple versions like in Word, which is the best way to get tangled up.”
  • Brand Discrepancies. Each department had a brand identify, making it difficult to maintain consistency across offers, or disseminate new identities.

  • Saves Time. “The collaborative module makes it possible to work faster and deliver contracts on time.”
  • Consistent Brand Charter. “Helps to establish the Léon Grosse brand image. The message is consistent and the charter is harmonious.”

“Just a Few Clicks” Solution

XaitProposal’s smart document builder combines intuitive step-by-step questionnaires with your content library to deliver on-brand, high-impact bids. Ideal for decentralized teams who want to get more bids out the door without sacrificing quality.

  • Guided Development. “The tutorial approach of the tool. The MCQ has two advantages: on the implementation and administration side, the MCQ allows you to ask yourself the right questions about the structure and structure of our offers. On the user side, in just a few clicks you can pre-construct an offer that just needs to be customized.”
  • Outline Mode. My big favorite is the outline mode. If the client asks for A B C D... the outline mode lets you drag and drop and rewrite the exact words in the right direction.”
  • Q&A. “The Q&A format significantly facilitates tailored construction; just select the different contract parameters, and it's done: the information is secured, and the result is very satisfying, much more modern than before.”
  • Branding Consistency. “We thus created an identity for each department to maintain consistency: group identity / construction identity... each with its color codes and visual universe. The tool allows for the rapid dissemination of these new identities, a real plus for brand consistency.”
  • Employment Contracts. “More than 100 employment contracts have already been drawn up in XaitProposal using this new format. All you have to do is select the various parameters of the employment contract and that's it: the information is secure and the result is very satisfactory, much more modern than before.”
  • Annual Report. “The CSR Department uses XaitProposal for the DPEF, Extra-Financial Performance Statement, accompanying our annual report. This qualitative document is consistent across all our supports.”
  • Reference Sheets and Resumes. “Commercially, we also created a template for our reference sheets and resumes.”
  • Ongoing Improvements. “What's more, XaitProposal is constantly improving. It's great to see features that are becoming more and more practical and making our daily lives easier.”
