A lot of focus for new technology projects falls on the technology being chosen to be implemented, but the partner you choose to work with is at least equally as important. This applies both to the success of the initial specification and implementation, and then to the long-term achievement of your strategic objectives it should enable.
Our partner selection process has been developed over years of experience, is finely tuned regularly as the market shifts, innovations come through and priorities change.
We run upwards of 20 partner selections ever year, across a range of digital technologies
Experience
This is a specialised area requiring an in-depth knowledge of the marketplace and comparable projects to cut through the jargon
Selection process
The selection process uses a standard, tried and tested methodology but is client focussed
This allows each organisation to gain knowledge and confidence throughout the process, delivering an informed and empowering outcome.
Influence with technology partners
Hart Square carries out more than 20 technology partner selection projects for non-profits every year and has an established methodology for this
Our methodology focusses on relationship building and a commonly agreed success criteria for such projects.
Continuity and knowledge
Our approach is based on providing decision-support to the client while strictly avoiding influencing the client’s decision on a preferred partner.
Process
Our process and facilitation focusses on building a solid foundation for the implementation project by establishing clear lines of responsibility for delivery
“Our team was in a peak period of busy and Hart Square was there to keep the project on track and ensure someone was fully focused on getting us to our deadline. I think we would be in a very different place now without Hart Square’s involvement!”
