What is your current annual personnel spend on the site? Vendor costs? What is the expected budget range for a) build b) maintain? What are you planning to spend on this project?

What is the expected budget range for a) build b) maintain? What are you planning to spend on this project? Contrary to popular belief, you should not try to hide your budget from your vendor. Being upfront about the amount of money you have to spend, or expect to spend greatly helps reach a proper match with your vendor. For analogy, you can purchase a car for $5,000, $50,000 or $500,000. They all come with tires, brakes, seats and a steering wheel and will get you from point A to point B. But obviously the demands/expectations of the buyer will be very different. And the product / technology will be very different. | ||
