Swift response to investor RFPs is critical for building solid initial relationships with potential clients. Decimal Point Analytics recognizes the criticality of the function and has been supporting investment managers with end-to-end RFP response management solutions. Our services include creating a structured repository of responses, drafting the first cut response on behalf of the client, establishing processes to capture periodic changes in data, maintaining the content library updated, and upload final RFP document on client systems and consultant platforms.

Unraveling the Crucial Role of First-Cut Response

In the entire value chain, creating first-cut responses is the most pivotal task because it forms the basis of the final response sent to the client later. However, most steps in preparation for the first cut response including:

• Accessing responses from content library

• Selecting the most relevant and the latest answer

• Learning the articulation of responses and utilizing the same for similar questions

• Utilizing latest data points in responses, for e.g. - updating latest answers AUM/NAV numbers automatically

are still manual processes and hence are susceptible to challenges like slower turnaround time and scope for human errors.

Leveraging the Technological Advancement with LLMs

Staying ahead of the Technology Curve, Decimal Point Analytics (DPA) has explored Large Language Models (LLMs) for making the first cut response with minimal human intervention. The AI-backed LLM algorithm can recognize, summarize, translate, predict, and generate content using large datasets and can replace the manual tasks involved in RFP responses. The model can be trained to pick the latest information so that the most updated data and financial numbers are shared with the potential client.

Overview of the Tasks Performed by LLMs

• Train machine learning (ML) models for articulation of custom responses

• Autofill latest responses from content library for new RFPs

• Customize responses with data from internal documents

• Automatically update the latest data points in existing responses from factsheets /internal documents

Advantages of Integrating LLMs in Preparing First-Cut Response

• Faster Turnaround Time

• Reduced Manual Intervention

• Significant Reduction in Scope of Errors

• Automated Specific Responses in Customized Format

• Time-Preference LLM Picks up the Chronologically Latest Data
