IT PROJECT MANAGEMENT: VENDOR SELECTION/MANAGEMENT

The Cavan Group has assisted clients in selection and implementation of products and services since the company was started in 1994. Whether assisting with the evaluation of telecommunications service providers or the acquisition of Data Center equipment, we employ a formal methodology for requirements analysis, solution design and specification, and RFP development.

Attempting to understand the vast array of complex and constantly changing vendor offerings can be a daunting task. Our knowledge of the vendor community enables us to identify pre-qualified companies so that only the best providers receive client RFPs. This streamlines the acquisition process and ensures high-quality responses.

To ensure that all vendor responses are evaluated fairly and consistently against client requirements, The Cavan Group utilizes a bid analysis matrix to facilitate comparison and maintain focus on specific business needs. We also provide assistance with vendor negotiations, and oversee post-award implementation activities to ensure compliance with specifications and standards.
