Better can mean different things to different organizations and individuals. It’s typically tied into the problems you’re experiencing now, and what your organization’s strategic focus and priorities are. When I ask clients and prospects what they mean by ‘better’ the answers I hear most commonly are:
- Is it more accurate?
- Is it faster?
- Will it give me greater standardization?
- Will it enable me to identify more risk?
- Will it enable me to federate by jurisdiction?
- Will it lead to greater efficiencies?
- Is it more cost-effective?
- Does it increase my visibility? Ie. is it transparent?
Once you’ve defined what ‘better’ means to you and your organization, you need to find out from your prospective vendors if and how ‘better’ can be tested quantifiably.
