Freerain Systems Offers the Bid Information Management Solution (BIMS) Via Low-cost, Per-user Fee With No Set-up Fee
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Chicago, January 1, 2006 - Freerain Systems, Inc., announced today that its flagship procurement document management product, the Bid Information Management Solution (BIMS), is now available to public agencies and K12 educational organizations via an online, per-user model with a low monthly cost. This pricing model has been used for many years in the private sector under the moniker "Application Service Provider (ASP)" to provide companies access to the latest technology with little upfront investment. Freerain Systems is among the first companies offering that same pricing model for public agencies to realize the same benefits. "A big advantage of this pricing structure is a low entry cost and an extremely short set-up time," said Andrew Taylor, Director of Business Development of Freerain Systems. "This model allows us to deliver in a more affordable manner the same, proven, high-quality software that's in use today. We believe that this will allow public agencies of all sizes to take full advantage of technology to improve the productivity of their procurement or purchasing process." BIMS' users do not need to invest in any specialized IT infrastructure nor use any internal IT supporting force. The product is accessed through a traditional internet browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox.
To encourage public agencies to experience the benefits of BIMS, Freerain Systems is offering a free, 30-day trial of the solution. "We are excited to offer this free trial so procurement departments can see for themselves how easy it is to use BIMS, and how quickly they are able to generate productivity benefits and improve purchasing power," said Mr. Taylor.
