How to find the IT right partner?
What size would be apt for me?
- Do I need a boutique firm?

How do I make sure if the vendor is philosophically aligned?
Does the vendor have a proper deployment methodology?
How is the resource allocation done? ( onsite : offshore ratio)
What are the vendor initiatives towards a positive business
impact?

this “qualitative”?
Will the vendor fit my enterprise’s vision through scale,
expertise and versatility?
With my applications running across the globe, is my vendor
providing effective & consistent support across time lines?
How do I get on demand access to various levels of skillsets
across technologies?
How do I validate key differentiating offerings from vendors?
