Having earned the status as a trusted advisor, Bill and Corporate Dining were frequently asked to create, coordinate and implement a food service management Request for Proposal. Since this process was always time consuming and expensive, Bill and Tim Shepardson, another former Corporate Dining Associate, decided that there is a more efficient, more affordable approach to this process. Having identified the problem, Tim and Bill devoted over a year toward the development of a new approach to a hospitality management RFP.
