step 1

Evaluation & Research

This is your moment to lead change. Whether it’s outdated UX, weak support, or mounting manual work, something has to give. This stage helps you define what’s not working, why it matters, and how to lead your institution toward something better.
step 2

Requirements Gathering

You’ve done the internal work. Now lead with purpose. This stage helps you guide structured vendor conversations, filter early, and focus on what matters. You’re not shopping for features—you’re searching for the right strategic fit.
step 3

3. Technical Refinement

You’ve narrowed it down. Now it’s time to go deep. This stage is where technical validation meets team alignment. You’re not just vetting the product—you’re evaluating the partnership. Push vendors past the pitch, validate integrations, and stay focused on what matters.
step 4

4. Final Vendor Selection

You’ve built alignment. Now it’s time to choose. This decision goes beyond price. It’s about trust, confidence, and the partner your institution will rely on for years. Choose with purpose. This moment sets the tone for every step that follows.
step 5

Implementation & Launch

You didn’t come this far to check a box. You came to lead change. Now, it’s go time. Your partner becomes your implementation team. Your vision becomes a launch plan. Get everyone on the same page and make your go-live a true step forward, not just a finish line.
