Logistics Software Webinar
Editor Peter MacLeod is joined by Gary Rosier-Taylor, VP of Fleet Sales for Descartes, and Phil Turton of Viewpoint Analysis (pictured below), an independent technology expert on evaluating and purchasing the right IT systems for your logistics operations. He argues that software and IT procurement is broken right now, with the vendor selection process taking too long. Buyers should spend time on their short list and streamline everything. Avoid getting what you asked for, rather than what you need. Try selling to the salesperson and using a ‘rapid RFP’. Score vendors appropriately after every interaction. Do you trust them to deliver?
What sort of additional knowledge does a buyer need to extract from a vendor to trim the shortlist?
- Whether you’re in transport and distribution management or IT procurement, this logistics software webinar will equip you with the strategies to make informed decisions. Watch now
