Vendor Selection & Procurement

Choose the right platform, with no vendor in the room

We don't resell or partner on platforms, so our only job is to help you pick the vendor that fits your requirements, budget and roadmap, and to get a contract that holds them to it.

When clients call us

An acquisition or partnership needs technical due diligence

What we do

How we help

01

Requirements and RFP

Functional, technical and certification requirements turned into an RFP vendors can answer precisely.

02

A weighted scoring model, scripted demos and, where it matters, a proof of concept.

03

Technical due diligence

An independent look at a platform's architecture, security, scalability and roadmap.

04

Contract support

Technical schedules, service levels and acceptance criteria that make the vendor's promises enforceable.

What you get

Clear deliverables, agreed up front

Every engagement starts with a written proposal covering scope, team, timeline and deliverables. You always know what you're getting, and your team keeps everything we produce.
