Choose the right platform, not the most familiar one.
Independent help to choose ERP, CRM, commerce or web platforms on your requirements, with a business case and a contract you can stand behind.
Platform decisions are often made on a demo and a relationship.
The incumbent vendor has a new version. A competitor recommends theirs. A consultancy that also implements suggests the platform it knows best.
The choice locks in cost and ways of working for ten years, yet the requirements behind it fit on a page.
The platform matters less than the fit between platform, process and people.
Most mainstream platforms can do most things. What separates a good choice from an expensive one is how well it fits your processes, your data and the team that will run it, and what it will really cost over its life.
We hold no reseller agreements, so our advice follows your requirements, not a partner programme.
We run the selection as a structured, independent process.
- 01
Write the requirements
Business, technical and data requirements, prioritised with the people who will use the platform.
- 02
Shortlist and test
Three to four candidates, scripted demos on your own scenarios and reference calls with companies like yours.
- 03
Calculate the full cost
Licences, implementation, integration, operation and change over five to ten years, side by side.
- 04
Decide and contract
A recommendation the board can follow, and help negotiating scope, price and exit terms with the vendor.
What you hold at the end
- 01
A requirements specification
What the platform must do, in priority order.
- 02
A scored comparison
Candidates tested on your scenarios, with total cost of ownership.
- 03
A sound contract
Scope, price and exit terms you can live with.
