RFP Automation for Healthcare Companies

Healthcare organizations operate in one of the most regulated and document-heavy industries in the world. Between security questionnaires, vendor risk assessments, and RFP responses, compliance and accuracy aren’t optional — they’re mission-critical.

That’s why leading healthcare providers, SaaS vendors, and medtech companies are turning to Iris.

Iris helps healthcare companies automate RFPs, security reviews, and compliance documentation with AI — saving hundreds of hours while reducing risk and improving accuracy.

Why RFPs Are Especially Complex in Healthcare

Responding to RFPs in healthcare isn’t just about pricing or features — it’s about trust.
Procurement teams expect detailed documentation covering:

  • HIPAA and SOC 2 compliance
  • Patient data handling and encryption standards
  • Security frameworks like HITRUST and ISO 27001
  • Vendor risk management and disaster recovery plans

For teams using spreadsheets and shared drives, these requirements can quickly turn into chaos.

Without automation, healthcare sales and compliance teams face:

  • Long turnaround times for questionnaires
  • Inconsistent answers between submissions
  • Version control issues with sensitive documentation
  • Risk of outdated or incomplete compliance language
