Choose the Right EC Vendors: A Best-of-Breed Selection Process

Overview An effective selection methodology ensures that the project team outlines appropriate evaluation criteria, gathers the most objective industry data possible, and evaluates that information in a structured format. Often, even more importantly, it facilitates a well-documented process, and allows the project team to properly enunciate exactly how and why they selected the vendor of choice. Organizations can standardize on a best-practices selection process to ensure that they work with the optimal strategic partners to make their electronic commerce vision a profitable, secure reality.
