Set a common baseline
Give each bidder the same employee counts, modules, countries, integrations, migration volumes, environments, service levels, and implementation dates. Record any assumption the supplier changes.

Pricing guide
15Five pricing and cost planning
Use published list prices where they are available, or enter figures from your quote. Every estimate shows what is included and excluded.
Public pricing available
Published list pricing can be used for an initial cost estimate.
Ask the vendor to itemise subscription scope, implementation, integrations, support, environments, data migration, and any minimum commitment.

Packaging
What to expect in the proposal
- Module labels are normalized buyer-facing capability areas derived from official evidence, not necessarily vendor SKU or package names.
- Public documentation establishes the described scope; buyers must still confirm edition, add-on, configuration, and contract availability.
Quote checklist
Normalise every proposal
- Named products, modules, and user populations
- One-time implementation and migration work
- Integration, environment, and support costs
- Contract term, uplift, minimums, and exit costs
Total-cost method
Turn the 15Five quote into a comparable business case
A subscription figure is only useful when every vendor is priced against the same scope, population, delivery responsibilities, and contract period.
Separate recurring and one-time cost
Model subscription, implementation, data work, integration, testing, training, support, partner services, travel, and internal staffing separately. Apply contractual uplifts across the full term.
Test commercial risk
Ask what triggers additional fees, how unused licences are handled, whether modules have minimums, what renewal protections apply, and what data extraction or transition support costs at exit.
