Software Selection: Helping you make the right choice

Whether the optimum choice for your organisation is packaged or bespoke software, it all depends on what business performance is required, the state of current and planned business processes, and your organisation's aspiration either to implement a standard solution or to aim for the highest possible value.

The reality is that every business from small to large utilises packaged software, and many of them also use some form of bespoke software. Clearly there are instances in which a packaged solution is the top choice, and other times when a bespoke software solution is in the best interest of the organisation.

At Geo-Bureau we begin the process by determining what change in business performance your organisation requires. Only then do we take steps to help you find the most beneficial IT/IS solution, be it a bespoke development, a customisable system, a packaged solution, or any combination of these three.

With the understanding that all of these choices are, in the right places, successful solutions, therein lies the issue of which approach is best. This involves focusing on the change in business performance and identifying which option best fits your firm's business model. Also necessary is to understand the implications and total cost of ownership of each option.

Whatever the size of your company and scale of your project, Geo-Bureau is able to guide your company through the process of selecting and implementing the right solution for your needs.
