Evaluation process - and what we consider to be important
Step 1 - Analysis
We build on the previous state of the work and take in the organization involved to create an overview. The goal is ONE system for all use cases that fits perfectly with the existing surrounding systems.
Step 2 - Target Picture
Our evaluation form focuses not only on key functional and non-functional requirements. In addition to assessing the product, we evaluate the vendor and realistic cost scenarios.
Step 3 - System Pre-Selection
Sometimes the systems ranked "top right" by analysts are not the most appropriate. The jointly defined shortlist may also include EU-focused systems or industry solutions.
Step 4 - System Evaluation
With us, you won't experience the usual evaluation fetishism, where software product B ends up winning with 384 points (ahead of A with 367 points). We evaluate strengths, weaknesses and obstacles.
Step 5 - System Recommendation
Our recommendations cover not only the solution(s) themselves, but also the way forward. In this manner, we bring stakeholders and management to the appropriate altitude.
