Your organization may need to consider new applications if your existing software does not provide value, is heavily customized, presents data integrity issues, lacks maturity in controls and security, or is no longer supported by the vendor.
Grant Thornton's IT solution selection services include the selection of mission critical applications using unbiased, fact-based decision criteria. Selecting the right IT solutions is critical for the success of your business and should be done using unbiased, fact-based criteria to determine the overall return on investment (ROI).
To determine alignment with business goals and the “best” overall solution, solution selection involves:
- an independent and objective approach
- consideration of vendor viability, technology, functionality, contractual and support needs
- analysis of requirements based on business value and cost of ownership
- determination of best practices and business improvement ideas and concepts
- decision-making based on a consistent structure and standardized criteria
