Q and A UI image

How it works

  1. The AI understands bidders’ questions, generates an answer, and presents sections of the documents from the data room that are relevant to the answer.

  2. You can refine the answer by providing further instructions using plain English, French, German or any other language.

  3. The answer can then still be manually checked and edited before being published to bidder groups.

 

Similar Questions: In addition, if a question is raised that has previously been submitted, the AI will flag semantically similar questions and their answers, reducing duplicated work and ensuring consistency.

For this to work in practice, the Q&A module needs to be easy to use, save you time and be versatile enough to handle all kinds of projects, large or small, simple or complex.

Imprima has it all

Save time by asking and answering questions in bulk

Ask and answer questions in bulk by importing and exporting excel spreadsheets. This feature is an efficient alternative for large and complex deals, saving you from having to handle each question individually.

Keep it all manageable – Team Leaders are in control

Team Leaders can be utilised on both sides of a transaction. On the buy-side, acting as a filter point employed to ensure question validity before submission. On the sell-side, by making sure your questions are forwarded to the appropriate expert.

Topic-based auto forwarding – straight forward deals, easily handled

Automatically assign questions to Q&A expert groups based on topic mapping. Enables Deal Managers to define topics and allocate the topics to the right answerers.

Designated approvers – Quality assurance of answers

Ensure quality of answers by assigning specific approvers. Approvers could be lawyers, making sure the answers are screened from a legal perspective, or any other experts in any field required.

It’s a very easy platform that allows the control of information by both parties and has a very easy Q&A process that is important in a Due Diligence Stage.

We used Imprima’s virtual data room service for a privatisation process over a period of almost 12 months. The system was easy to use and we didn’t need any special training to set it up. The management of the documents, the access levels and the questions sent to us from the bidders electronically was straightforward.
