Lessons Learned:
–
Evaluating the business drivers first.
–
Bottom up would be starting with requirements.
-
Focus on smaller project phases with definable ROI
at each step.
-
Modify your strategy presentation based on your
current organizational structure (i.e. focus on financial
aspects for CFO, technical/business drivers for CIO, security
for CISO).
-
Find an executive sponsor who truly
understands and agrees with the business drivers for the project.
-
If you don’t have the expertise or current staff
resources to develop your strategic roadmap, find creditable
outside resources to help (someone who has been in the trenches
before).
Best Practice in
this area:
-
If you let the
vendors know how you will be evaluating their solutions you will
get better RFQ responses.
