Ask: Jordan asked for thirty minutes to learn what would make this a yes, with the Enterprise proposal still open on his side.
Customer view: Megan says the decision is final, will not share how vendors were scored, and does not want terms to look open.
Next: a call on Tuesday at 14:00 Eastern, limited to open findings and nothing commercial.

Jordan Pike 24 Jun 2026 13:00Hi Megan, To be transparent, I'm not sure where your team has landed after the security review, and I'd rather hear it directly than guess. Here's where we are from my side: the Enterprise proposal is still open, and I'd like to go through any remaining points on terms with you. Could we get thirty minutes on the calendar this week or next? What would make this a yes, or if it's a no, what should we have done differently? Thanks, Jordan
Megan Alvarez 24 Jun 2026 15:48Jordan, Thank you for the note. For the record, the review has concluded on our side, and I am not able to share how vendors were assessed or scored. Our risk posture requires that this stay internal. The business has made its decision and has gone with another vendor. I will not characterize that as anything other than final, and I would not want to give you the impression that terms are still being negotiated. That said, I am willing to take a short call to close out the open findings so that the record on your side is accurate. I am traveling for the rest of this week. Tuesday or Thursday afternoon of next week would work, Eastern time. Megan Alvarez, CISO- Jordan Pike 26 Jun 2026 08:24Megan, Thanks for being straight with me, I appreciate it. Understood on the decision, and understood on the scoring. Let's lock in Tuesday at 14:00 Eastern. I'll keep it to thirty minutes and keep it to the open findings, nothing commercial. If it's easier, I'll send a short list of the items beforehand so you can tell me which ones you consider closed. If Tuesday slips, Thursday at the same time works for me. Thanks, Jordan
