Build a seven-stage evidence trail from early requirements through migration and exit readiness.

Use a product-neutral procurement path that turns each stage into something the next reviewer can inspect: requirements, vendor evidence, accessibility checks, scored comparisons, migration readiness, and continuity planning. No email gate is required.

  • Define requirements and evidence requests before vendor momentum takes over
  • Test security and accessibility claims with reusable questionnaires and checklists
  • Carry the decision through scoring, migration readiness, and software exit planning
