How It Works

Find. Fit. Execute.
No Wasted RFP.

486 pre-validated vendors. Run-rate buys skip the RFP entirely, and big decisions get a structured RFP built on a pre-vetted shortlist. We've already done the discovery work — so your evaluation starts at the shortlist, not the blank page.

01 // Find
Identify the Fit

We start with your specific need, budget, and environment — then pull the right candidates from 486 pre-validated vendors across 17 categories. No RFI. No discovery fee.

02 // Fit
Score & Select

We run a structured, apples-to-apples vendor evaluation — presentations, scoring, and a documented recommendation you can defend to your board. Independent. Rigorous. Fast.

03 // Execute
Contract & Close

We line up commercial terms, coordinate independent contract review with your counsel, manage the transition, and stay involved through go-live. You own the outcome. We make sure the vendor delivers on what was promised.

About IQ4hire

25 years of enterprise procurement. Rebuilt.

Founded on a simple premise: enterprises making expensive technology decisions deserve independent, expert guidance — not vendor pitches, not expensive consultants, not an RFP process that costs more than the project.

David LaRue was a Partner at Bridge Strategy Group — a McKinsey-pedigree Chicago consulting firm — where IQ4hire was among his clients. He led landmark engagements at McDonald's, Hartford, CNA and JPMorgan Chase, spent two decades as the buyer leading ERP and sourcing decisions at DeVry, True Value and KEH Camera, then relaunched IQ4hire in 2024 for the full modern technology stack.
