The selection and procurement of IT systems can be very challenging and demanding. It requires time and expertise. Procurement is one of the most time consuming and sensitive activities an organisation can undertake. If the process is under pressure, it can result in poor decisions, or even no decision.

Small organisations do not have the staff resources to devote to effective procurement. Too often they do not have the expertise to specify concisely required outcomes. Too often they rely on the sales person who may, or may not, be expert. Too often the various activities take up the time of the most productive people in a business.

Schools have similar but different problems. There can be a significant disconnect between those making financial decisions and those making technical decisions. The specification of requirements and requesting proposals is, too often, not at arm's length and done in haste. The impartial evaluation of proposals can be difficult when pressure is being exerted from all sides.

Educad has 17 years experience in the computer industry as a supplier. We have relinquished that role as we were growing less and less comfortable with the selling culture. We have amassed great expertise. We have no ties to suppliers as we are a support and consulting organisation.  We are truly independent. When engaged on a procurement assignment we will not accept any commissions or inducements from suppliers.
