New York City attorney Monassebian tells readers that only 9 to 16% of more than 175,000 business software projects come in on time and on budget. Those are the kinds of statistics that make executives very, very nervous. This guide provides practical information to avoid costly errors in purchasing and implementing computer systems, covering vendor evaluation, alternative implementation strategies like outsourcing, the benefits and disadvantages of prepackaged software, and leasing considerations. All topics include play by play negotiation coaching, due diligence and dispute resolution information, as well as sample contracts. Annotation c.
