Selection Management for Systems and Services
by Jacquie Wakeford
Description
Make your business more efficient with a tried and tested process for selection management. Selecting a new system or service can often be a crucial business decision, but small and medium size enterprises (SMEs) don’t do it very often and, as a result, lack experience of the selection process. Simplified selection management This book describes a simplified selection process that maintains a reasonable level of due diligence, and which can be tailored to suit each organisation’s specific needs. Key stages described include: Defining selection parameters, gathering requirements, balancing costs against benefits. Creating the “long list” of candidates, then drafting and issuing a Request For Information (RFI). Forming the review team and using agreed criteria to determine a short list. Performing an in-depth investigation then making the preferred selection. Overview of next steps including negotiating contract terms, running a proof of concept, and implementing the chosen solution. Each chapter includes templates of documents that will be used during the selection process. A faster, smarter selection Formal procurement usually involves days, weeks or even months producing a specification followed by a tender and selection process, but this is rarely practical for an organisation that doesn’t have (or need) a full-time procurement expert. Selection Management for Systems and Services offers a simplified, tried and tested process based on a standard set of steps. It helps the reader to reduce the time spent on the selection process and increases the chances of making a successful selection. The book is primarily aimed at anyone tasked with selecting an IT system or service, however the processes and techniques are generic and can be adapted for the selection of non-IT services or products. A faster route to the right selection – buy this book today and make your business work better!
