WESTPORT, Conn., Jan. 31, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Proposal Software, Inc., developer of the leading proposal management software PMAPS(r) (Proposal Management and Production System), has released Service Pack 1 for the PMAPS(r) family of Editions. The announcement was made today by John A. Laurino, CEO of Proposal Software, Inc.
With over 100 new features, including single-click autofilters for increased search productivity, this PMAPS(r) Service Pack 1 provides users with 20 to 50 percent faster search results. PMAPS(r) already contains the 'best in class' and fastest search engine among all proposal software applications on the market today.
The most comprehensive proposal management software since its original release in 1994, the tenth-generation of PMAPS(r) was released in May 2006.
According to Laurino, suggestions by PMAPS(r) clients were the impetus for productivity improvements included in the Service Pack 1 updates.
"After releasing PMAPS(r) 2006, we realized almost immediately that our user community had some even better ideas to improve the latest release. Rather than put them on hold, our Client Services Team pushed hard and delivered this interim upgrade, at no cost to our User Base, ahead of the next formal upgrade scheduled for 2008," said Laurino.
"Our clients are highly experienced, seasoned proposal professionals who use PMAPS(r) to turn around high volumes of Requests for Proposals (RFPs) under very tight deadlines. We can't ever pretend to know more about responding to RFPs and RFIs than our customers," he added.
According to Proposal Software, Inc. chief technology officer Steven N. Heffter, "Our close relationship with our clients is invaluable. By simply listening to the changes in their workflow, our team was able to add the suggested features in this release, allowing vast improvements in our clients' productivity."
Current PMAPS(r) clients include Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, ING Investment Management, BlackRock, Baring Asset Management, AAM-Investment Management, Fred Alger Management, and the WellPoint family of healthcare companies.
