What it says
What this says
Current to 11 Oct 26Draft proposal dated 27 Aug 2025 for a modest Starter expansion at an annual price of £4,500. It is marked draft and not an offer until reviewed and issued. Existing contracted annual recurring revenue is stated as £20k for 15 licensed users.
What it is: a BB-Demo draft proposal prepared by Priya Raman for a first conversation. The text says "It is not an offer until it has been reviewed and issued." It follows a dip in regular use over the last quarter.
Commits: nothing yet. Billing and payment terms follow the current Order Form, and existing terms, service levels and the Master Services Agreement continue to apply.
Unusual: the commercials table shows two figures. The annual price of the expansion is £4,500, while the total deal value as recorded for this proposal is £2,614, which the text says should not be read as an annual price. The document does not explain how the two relate.
Not settled: the mix of extra users and connectors, who owns the brain day to day, and whether the work aligns to the renewal term. The text also gives the current term end as 30 Apr 2026, which is before the as-of date, so the draft is stale and the evidence does not show whether it was ever issued.

The document
Body
Proposal: Starter Expansion for Grisedale Search & Selection
Draft, version 1, 27 Aug 2025 Prepared by Priya Raman, Account Executive, BB-Demo. Customer success contact: Marcus Bell.
This draft is for internal review and for a first conversation with Grisedale. It is not an offer until it has been reviewed and issued.
1. Where we are today
Grisedale Search & Selection has been a BB-Demo customer since 1 May 2024 on the Starter tier, with 15 licensed users and contracted annual recurring revenue of £20k. The current term runs to 30 Apr 2026.
The brain gives your consultants and your operations manager one place to see client accounts, open roles and client complaints. Payments are up to date, and support contact has been light, with a single ticket in the last month.
2. What we have noticed
Regular use of the brain has dipped over the last quarter. A smaller group is asking questions than before, and we would like to understand why before proposing anything heavy. It may be a busy period on the desk, a change in who does the reporting, or a source that needs another look. We would rather talk to you than guess.

This is the reason the proposal is deliberately modest. The aim is to make the brain more useful to the people who are already in it, so that more of your team reach for it day to day.
3. Proposed scope
A modest expansion of the existing Starter subscription:
- Additional capacity on the Starter tier, to be agreed with you after a short usage conversation.
- A working session with your operations manager to look at which questions the team actually asks, and set up pages that answer them faster.
- A refresh check on the connected sources, so the nightly data is complete and current.
Open points for this draft
- Exact mix of extra users and connectors: to be confirmed with Grisedale.
- Who on your side should own the brain day to day.
- Whether the work should be aligned to the start of the renewal term.

5. Next steps
- Priya and Marcus to arrange a short call with your operations manager to talk through how the team uses the brain today.
- Agree the final scope and settle the open points above.
- Review this draft internally and issue it as an order form amendment.
- Plan the work so that the brain is working well for the team well before the current term ends on 30 Apr 2026.
Happy to make this easy: a short call is all we need to get started.
Best, Priya
