be objective and that the vendors financial interests will not bias the direction. Many

companies have learned, to their dismay, that a strategic planning partner is in an ideal

position to come to conclusions that create outsourcing opportunities or major systems

integration projects that may not be good business sense for the company. For example, if

a firm that specializes in implementing Oracle applications assists with strategic planning,

do not be surprised by a recommendation of Oracle applications as the key strategic

direction.

15. Review the partners methodology and planning process. Ensure the process is a fit

with the culture and desires. If possible, review other plans the consultant has developed.

Ensure the level of detail aligns with your desires and expectations. Be sure the planning

process used and plan deliverables are detailed enough rather than just a fluffy

presentation with no true direction and without a solid basis for the decisions.

* 16. Review the credentials of the specific consultants who will be assigned to the

planning project and meet with them. Do they have the necessary experience and

knowledge? How much IS experience do they have? Are you comfortable with them? Do

you trust them? The specific individual, not the company, will be doing the planning work,

so focus attention on the specific individuals who will be doing the planning as well as their

organization. How many strategic plans have they completed? Do they have significantexperience in IS and are they up-to-date with technologies and directions? Do they have

practical implementation experience?

* 17. Obtain customer references and talk with customers the specific consultant has

assisted. Were they satisfied? Do they have a solid direction and plan? Was the planning

process effective for their organization?

* 18. What is their approach to the planning project? How involved will the company be?

Does the consultant take control of the planning effort, or do you retain control of the plan,

the process, and the decisions? The role of the consultant is to guide the process and

provide information, and leave the decision making to you, because it is your direction and

plan. How will the consultant ensure knowledgee transfer so you can continue the planning

process on an ongoing basis?

* 19. How are changes to the project addressed? How will the status of the project be

communicated?

* 20. What is the estimated cost and schedule? What are the assumptions in the

estimates?
