- ) Investigation of vendor statements collected during the Request for Proposal phase, industry statements, other institution’s views of vendors,
- ) Development of a user-centric selection and survey instrument specifically designed to assess user feedback,
- ) Scientific analysis of validated findings and survey results at all steering committee meetings,
- ) Assessment of the vendor's ability to support research by identifying funded and published research projects that were based on the vendors system,
- ) Employing meticulous total cost of ownership analysis to assess and compare estimated costs of implementing vendor solution, and
- ) Iterative meetings with stakeholders, executives and users to understand their needs, address their concerns and communicate the vision.
