Axis provides a multi-step process to guide clients from identifying requirements to selecting and implementing software and technology solutions. The process starts by analyzing current state and requirements with the client's business, procurement, and technology teams. Axis then conducts a market survey and develops a shortlist of viable solutions. The final steps involve contacting vendors, organizing requests for information/proposals, and facilitating stakeholder scoring and demos to advise on product selection and implementation.

1. A Solution Evaluation and Selection brings repeatable, objective, and defendable process to acquisition and development of soft-
ware and technology based services. We use a multi-step process to guide you from requirements, to identification, to evaluation,
to selection, and finally implementation. Each step provides the artifacts necessary to initiate the following step so you may tailor
the process to your specific needs.
Axis starts with your Business Units, Procurement Organization, and Technology teams to analyze your current state and
requirements to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the desired solution. We then conduct a Market Survey using a blend
of our industry experience and research analyst opinion to develop a short list of viable solutions. The third step is to
initiate vendor contact, organize the RFI/RFP process or work with your Procurement team, schedule vendor demos and
stake-holder scoring processes that will advise product selection and implementation.
