Tambellini does not partner with higher education technology and service providers, so we do not have a financial stake in client selections. Our consultation is based strictly on your needs using our extensive knowledge of the market and higher education experience to identify the providers with the strongest budgetary, cultural, and technological alignment.

We know it can be difficult to discern differences between providers and determine what functionality and service levels your institution needs—versus what a provider may say you need. Tambellini continuously tracks enterprise solutions’ unique features and functionalities and service provider offerings and outcomes, so you don’t have to. Our flexible service offerings allow us to assist you regardless of where you are in the evaluation and selection process.
A generic RFP, RFI, or ITN will get you a generic, often auto-generated response that likely leaves more questions than answers. That’s why, after narrowing your options to the best-fit providers, we help develop tailored proposals that clearly articulate your institution’s needs specific to the desired solution and services. The result: High-quality proposals from select providers, which expedites selection and contract review and negotiation.
