The Rapid Application Selection Framework

simple and easy, we asked and the outcome was delivered

No bad parts at all. Well informed discussion, all questions answered thoroughly.

No worst parts, everything was a huge help, and the large amount of information was found to be extremely valuable.

Best - quick turnaround Worse - making sure our requirements were complete

It seems there was a mismatch between our intended purpose for the call and what was actually booked. Hriday, who was filling in for a colleague, was polite and offered some helpful points. However, he was unable to provide the specific value we were seeking in terms of developing a repeatable process for application selection and implementation at our company. We will follow up with our account representative to explore other options. Read Less

We appreciate that Kieran has a broad base of knowledge and has a pragmatic and logical approach when applying that knowledge. We loved the deck Kieran shared. It had great information in it. From a less experienced team member, it was hard to follow. He seemed to focus on what requirements gathering would look like for larger/more complex projects and did not ask as many good follow-up questions. Read Less

Very easy communication and understanding of our requirements by Yaz, the expert in this case. Solid report and presentation of the report, including answering all questions we had. Overall, an excellent service. Read Less

Brilliant - would not have been able to execute within the tight timelines without the RASF and expert advice.

Best: Continued proven track record of success. Coalescing multiple application inputs and use cases into a business value decision. The rigor to get it all onto paper so we can be actionable. Worst: More detailed and product specific cons for the vendor landscape. They were pretty much the same across the board. Read Less

We were able to save time and go through the selection process rapidly because Maya understood that we as a smaller enterprise could skip some the steps since the decision makers and end-users were on the selection committee. Read Less

It was quick and efficient as it both didn't take a lot of our time to explain the need and the results came back fairly quickly. No "worst' part to call out as the engagement exactly met my expectations due to good communication up front and was exactly what we needed at this step in the overall process. Yaz was great. Thanks!

Was a good overview of the RASF, but wasn't quite the detail we were looking for regarding PPM tools

It has been helpful to have the analyst provide templates and advice that keep our project team on track.

Having a framework we can use is the best part.

The best part was the simple structure of the framework and focused discussions. The worst part was the vendor comparison discussion as it did not focus on our existing investments. Read Less

My experience is still ongoing. However, the best parts have been the resources and suggestions given by Yaz. The structure of the process is already reassuring. Still, the additional assistance of the documents, quadrant reports, and one-on-one advice has been vital for the progress of my project. The most complex part has been progressing a project involving stakeholders with different perspectives. Some tools are available to deal with this issue, but overall, it has impacted the project's velocity. Yaz has been as helpful as he can through these issues, including walking the team through the process to orient them better and provide a conducive environment for requirements gathering. Read Less

The RASF methodology was very helpful. The guidance and support we received from Yaz and Ben was excellent.

The Info-Tech analyst has moved us through the process quickly and efficiently. The analyst has also covered key points for us to consider and assisted us in distinguishing must have features from nice to have features. Given that most people on our internal team have never done this before, we could perhaps have moved through the process a little slower. However, the speed and the framework is probably ideal for client with more experience in this area. Read Less
