Technology selection process
  • Define your needs (Why you need a consultation technology)
    • Define consultation case
      • Description: a short explanation of the consultation activity
      • Reasons: a description of the needs why this consultation activity should be taken
      • Assumptions: All the assumptions to make this consultation activity
      • Benefits: List of benefits for consulting organisation and participant
      • Cost: How much it cost to run this consultation activity
      • Investment: Can this consultation activity will be taken in future
  • Define your selection criteria (Criteria for Technology selection)
    • Vendor stability and reputation (support)
    • Wide adoption in market
    • Does it require any possible changes to meet stack holders needs
    • Secure and mature/proven technology
    • Training and documentation
    • Actual implementation of the technology
    • Technology accessibility standards
  • List of matching technologies
  • Select the best suited for you
    • Good description of technology
    • Infrastructure required (network)
    • Platforms (operating systems, hardware)
    • Architectural Integrity (Interaction with other technology, Would it possible to integrate with other technology?)
    • Fitness for purpose (Is it meeting purpose envisaged?)
    • Expertise (What knowledge should be available in-house, Maintenance and support)
    • Maturity of Standard (Is the technology mature and well-proven)
    • User needs (Does the technology satisfy the user requirements and Matching stack holders requirements)
    • Preservation needs (Is technology is appropriate for long-term preservation)
    • Budget (time, money)

Design, planning (*)

  1. What technical knowledge/expertise should be available in-house?
  2. How much time is required to implementation of the technology?
  3. What support, documentation, help are available to implement the technology?
  4. How much maintenance, training is needed for using technology?
  5. Is required to customise/change technology to meet envisage use of technology?
  6. Will it be accessible to participants and consulter?
