Navigating your next technology investment

by
Alfredo Ramirez

A Prosal and ParsonsTKO webinar on how to manage risk & improve results during the RFP process.

Crafting a successful RFP or selecting the best vendor isn’t what makes a technology investment successful. It is whether or not your organization uses the technology and meets its strategic objectives with its help.

Join us and ParsonsTKO as we explore the essential steps you should take to guarantee the success of your next big technology investment. The technology selection process begins long before the RFP, and this session will guide you through the critical steps many tend to skip. We’ll explore preliminary efforts such as tech and data audits, budget considerations, and how a third party’s perspective supports this process.

By the end of this webinar, you’ll:

  • Learn the steps to guarantee your organization is adequately equipped to adopt new technology.
  • Confidently produce comprehensive RFPs that address your organization’s unique needs and expectations
  • Know how to organize a selection process that will accelerate the procurement phase
