Sales Module Overview

The Sales module provides a comprehensive system for managing the complete client engagement lifecycle—from initial client onboarding through scoping questionnaires, pricing calculation, SOW generation, and client approval.

Core Capabilities

Client Relationship Management

Maintain detailed client records with contact tracking, organizational details, and logo management. Track multiple points of contact (POCs) per client with roles and responsibilities.

Scoping Questionnaire System

Dynamic questionnaires with conditional logic that adapt based on selected services and previous responses. Supports both internal completion by sales team and external completion by clients through the public portal.

Automated Pricing Engine

Rule-based pricing calculation with Level of Effort (LOE) estimation. Includes automatic overhead calculations, tool charges, rate tier assignments, and manual adjustment capabilities.

SOW/ROE Document Generation

Template-driven document generation with placeholder resolution, conditional content blocks, and versioning. Supports both Statement of Work (SOW) and Rules of Engagement (ROE) document types.

Public Client Portal

Secure, token-based access for clients to complete questionnaires, review SOW documents, add comments, and provide acceptance or rejection with digital signatures.

Sales Pipeline

CRM-style Kanban board for opportunity tracking with drag-and-drop stage management, pipeline metrics, and win/loss tracking.

Key Features

Token-Based Secure Access

Public portal access uses cryptographically secure tokens with configurable expiry periods. Viewing documents, submitting questionnaires, and accepting/rejecting SOWs require only a valid, unexpired token. Email-based authorization (against the portal_recipients list) is enforced specifically for adding and deleting comments on SOW documents.

Rule-Based Pricing

The pricing engine evaluates service-specific rules based on questionnaire responses to automatically calculate level of effort. Manual overrides and adjustments are available for fine-tuning.

Template-Driven Generation

SOW documents are generated from customizable templates with placeholder resolution for client details, organization info, services, and pricing data.

Client Commenting and Approval

Clients can highlight specific sections, add comments, and provide formal acceptance or rejection with signature capture and timestamp recording.

Drag-and-Drop Pipeline

Visual Kanban board allows intuitive opportunity management with automatic status updates and pipeline metrics calculation.
