Strategic Selection

Choosing the right software platform and implementation partner can make or break your transformation. With countless vendors and endless sales pitches, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed or misled. At Aivance Advisory, we cut through the noise with an independent, structured approach. We help you shortlist the right options, test them where it matters most, and select both a system and a partner you can trust. The result: clarity, confidence, and a decision you won’t second-guess.

We Narrow Your Choices

Outcome: A focused shortlist of vendors you can trust are aligned to your needs.

Scan the Market: We independently scan the ERP, SCM, HCM, EPM, and CX market to surface only those vendors that align with your size, industry, and priorities — eliminating wasted time with vendors that were never a fit.
Fit-Gap Analysis: We evaluate each option against your actual requirements, showing where systems fit well and where they fall short. This keeps the discussion grounded in facts, not vendor claims.
Define Success Criteria: Before demos begin, we establish the criteria for what “good” looks like. This ensures every option is measured against the same standards and linked directly to your business outcomes.

Tailored RFPs: We develop RFPs around your business drivers and priorities, not generic vendor templates. This ensures vendor responses speak to what matters most.
Outcome-Driven Demos: We script demos so vendors must show how their system handles your real processes and pain points — not canned marketing slides.
Scoring Frameworks: We implement clear scoring tools so every stakeholder evaluates vendors in a consistent way. This makes comparisons transparent and data-driven.
