Offering Objectives:
A correctly designed statement of product requirements is critical to BPMS product selection.  Many organizations lack the knowledge of what features and capabilities are standard in all BPMS offerings, and which are found only in a subset of offerings well-matched to the client’s needs.  This service ensures the client’s RFP or requirements document is complete, unambiguous to responding vendors, and focused on the details that make a difference in product selection.

He was formerly vice president and service director at BIS Strategic Decisions, which became Giga Information Group (now part of Forrester Research).

A company that is entering the BPMS product selection process and has developed an initial set of business and technical requirements prior to the start of the engagement.
