UNDERSTAND WHAT THE BENEFITS MEAN
While a lot of the HP solutions you look at will offer the same key services, it’s important to remember that no two organisations (even in the same industry) have the exact same needs. As a result, you must ensure that you have full comprehension of what the tool can deliver to your organisation in terms of meeting these specific needs. Conduct a comparative analysis so that you can fully understand the benefits that the software will bring prior to investment.

KNOW WHAT IS BEING OFFERED
Some vendors will offer little to no follow up after the software has been sold to you. Be sure to identify a vendor that provides post-installation customer service and technical support (should the need arise). It’s worth getting in contact with other companies that use the service so that you can be fully comfortable with the quality that is being provided.
SELECT THE SOFTWARE COLLABORATIVELY
As a HP leader, it is extremely beneficial to involve leaders from other departments in the decision making process. By gaining an understanding of the challenges faced by their staff, you can acquire a fuller picture of what’s needed and further inform your decision.
ENSURE THAT YOUR IT INFRASTRUCTURE WILL SUPPORT THE NEW SOFTWARE
You absolutely must involve the IT department before finalising the decision to purchase You absolutely must involve the IT department before finalising the decision to purchase particular software.
