Tech Evaluation
Selecting the technology to evaluate can be an overwhelming experience. Let MRXplorer partner with you to sift through the many options and narrow the options to those that meet your needs. I can then walk your team through the rest of the evaluation process, including creating a scorecard and collaborating with IT and Legal departments to make sure all technical requirements are being captured in the evaluation phase.
This phase follows a needs assessment conducted by MRXplorer or that you've completed yourself.
Contact Z Johnson to learn more about the MRXplorer Technology Evaluation Framework, where you will find detailed steps including detailing your requirements, creating a scorecard, selecting the evaluation team, and preparing for the final decision meeting.
Timing: varies depending on scope, starts at 4-6 weeks

Moving away from the clutter
A Fortune 500 customer had a large market research team and the vendor list to go with it. Without a central budget for vendors, team members were free to select their own tech solutions as long as they fit their needs and own project budgets. As part of a privacy review to comply with upcoming GDPR regulations, the team was instructed by finance and legal to consolidate. Not only was there opportunity to reduce spend, there was also the opportunity to reduce data privacy risk.
It was a year-long effort, but once finished, we reduced the total spend on tech solutions by 25% and processes were standardized as a by-product!
