Learning Programme: Part 2
—
Every integration comes with promises of simplicity, every roadmap seems flexible, and every demo is seamless. The challenge of technology selection isn’t finding options; it’s knowing which questions to ask, and how to evaluate what you hear against what your organisation actually needs.

The foundation of a good selection process is a clear, structured set of requirements: a complete picture of what your organisation needs technology to do, gathered from across the business and prioritised before you speak to a single supplier.
For this session, we're joined by two guests from opposite sides of a procurement process: Dean Terry, Co-Founder and Technical Director at Cantarus, and Rebecca Radley, Head of Marketing and Member Engagement of the British Equine Veterinary Association (BEVA). Dean will share what organisations commonly miss when putting a tender together, and how to get the most useful responses back: the questions worth asking and the information vendors need from you. Rebecca will talk through BEVA's own experience selecting a technology partner: what mattered most in the decision, and what the process was like.
Join for a rounded view of what a good selection process looks like from both sides of the table, plus Hart Square’s insight into getting your requirements right and using them to make a selection decision you can stand behind.
Project leads, operations managers, and anyone involved in evaluating or selecting technology at a charity or membership organisation, particularly those preparing for or currently running a procurement process.
