Search Accelerator
Get in gear and accelerate your entire marketing effort with the PMAPS® Search Accelerator
The PMAPS® Search Accelerator was designed as the perfect companion for PMAPS 2008 for tackling the most advanced database or presentation library search and assembly activities. It allows you to instantly expand your search field to targeted locations including any intranet or internet site you designate! What’s more, the PMAPS Search Accelerator includes a presentation builder that allows you to quickly and easily assemble a new presentation from a library of PowerPoint slides, PDFs or any Word document.
Search Anything. Anywhere. Anytime.
Using a similar intuitive Google™-like search engine, the PMAPS Search Accelerator gives you the ability to search the contents of any Microsoft Office document (Word, PowerPoint and Excel), PDF or HTML files. This means your entire presentation library or even your organization’s web site can be searched for specific slides or other targeted content that can be easily inserted into any type of communication, proposal or marketing document.
Save Time. Save Money. Stay Legal.
Worried about whether you can actually use the information you find on the web? Then worry no more. With the PMAPS Search Accelerator you can designate any searchable location as a compliant or non-compliant source. Users are immediately notified if a document they would like to use is approved for use or not. Any non-compliant document may then be easily directed to a Subject Matter Expert (SME) or Compliance Officer for editorial approval. So instead of simply presenting a question for answer to the Subject Matter Expert, the proposal writer can now quickly and easily find available content that addresses the question being asked and present it as a draft for review and editing. This accelerates the entire process, while saving the SMEs valuable time. Once approved, the now compliant answer can be imported into the PMAPS database to avoid repeating both the search and approval process in the future. No other proposal software provides this level of rigorous compliance warning, review and tracking at the individual document level, if at all.
Looking for a Needle in a Haystack?
You know its there, a document or file that you need, but you just can’t quite put your finger on it. Just like the PMAPS you know and love, all the Q&A records in your database may be organized or segmented using 25 customizable ‘Attributes’. This powerful filtering ability
allows you to speed through hundreds of similar documents to find the exact results you require, in seconds, no matter where they reside. This ‘on the fly’ ability to pinpoint targeted information would be virtually impossible to achieve using any type of folder tree structure, and its intuitive nature reduces training time to near zero so even the new guy is up and running in no time.
NO Messy Cutting & Pasting.
Cutting and pasting is both time-consuming and prone to human error. And while the ‘norm’ for most web applications, our Proposal Software engineers knew it was simply unacceptable for any PMAPS application. Since 1994, PMAPS has always permitted automatic
insertion with a single click from your database to your proposal or marketing document. The PMAPS Search Accelerator is no exception. Once your search is completed, simply click anywhere in the content you desire and PMAPS will automatically drop it into your Word, Excel or PowerPoint document running locally – no cutting or pasting required. For proposal and marketing professionals who are constantly searching and inserting content into RFPs and other marketing materials, the timesaving is substantial. But then, PMAPS has always been about saving time… one click at a time.
One Size Doesn’t Fit All.
Proposal Software understands that your business is different from the next and that one size never truly fits all. That’s why we offer extreme flexibility in the manner in which the PMAPS Search Accelerator can be delivered to you. You can install it on your own company servers as a one-time purchase or on a monthly rental basis. Or you can take advantage of our hosted SaaS solution whereupon you can access the PMAPS Search Accelerator via the web browser on any PC, anywhere, anytime. With the PMAPS Search Accelerator, one size doesn’t have to fit all!
Presentation Acceleration.
The PMAPS Search Accelerator also allows you to create a new PowerPoint
presentation on the fly in minutes. Simply search for the slide or slides that you desire from within your entire presentation library, then assemble them to create a new presentation or pitch book instantly. And the ability to create a ‘Preview Only’ view allows “look but don’t touch” access to your sales organization. This allows them to use the presentation without the ability to change the content in your database. It’s quick, its easy, it’s the PMAPS® Search Accelerator.
