I have just started a new position in my job and am looking to see if there is a tool that can assist me in the role. I wil be advising the sales team on what are the best servers to sell to our customers in certain situations. Does hp have a tool that can simplify this process. I have been working with HP Server for a long time and want to standardise the purchasing procedures across the sales team

Here are a few.  The server buying guide: http://www.hp.com/cgi-bin/sbso/buyguides/tsg_product_select.cgi; the server selector (seems it is down at the moment) http://h10018.www1.hp.com/wwsolutions/selector/temp_server.html; the product bulletin http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/ProductBulletin.html#int.  The product bulletin doesn't guide but it shows all the details on every product so very helpful.
