Why It Was Lost
The deal reached the Proposal stage in June before MegaMart's procurement team pivoted to an in-house build strategy. No pricing or product objection was recorded — the decision was driven by a strategic shift, not a competitive loss to another vendor. Deal notes.md
Key Risk Signals (Lesson Learned)
- In-house build risk: Large enterprise accounts with internal engineering capacity may opt to build rather than buy, especially when security and data control are concerns.
- Security risk: Enterprise-scale deals carry heightened security scrutiny that can trigger in-house alternatives.
- Plan: Re-approach MegaMart in approximately 6 months to reassess — their in-house project may stall or prove costly. Deal notes.md
