Evaluating Information Industry Services & Vendors: Best practices for info pros and IT staff Wednesday, October 26, 2011 9:30 AM - 10:45 AM EDT - No charge for the Webinar - Register

The information industry is again changing rapidly. First-time and replacement solutions offer many benefits, but moving forward involves a certain leap of faith. Before working with a new vendor or implementing a new product for you and your own customers, you cannot truly know how things will unfold. Yet without taking these risks and re-evaluating, progress stagnates.

Avoid common pitfalls and take some of the risk out of new solutions and relationships. Learn from experienced peers about engagement approaches, key questions, validation, and contract clauses to insist upon when you expand your portfolio of solutions and suppliers.

Panelists include:

• Armand Brevig, Global Director of Sales, Reprints Desk
• Perrin Kerravala, product reviewer for VIP and information manager with Export Development Canada
• Tim Buckley Owen, senior news editor for VIP and information industry journalist and trainer with 25+ years experience
