Evaluation takes place across several dimensions: technical fit, implementation and delivery capabilities, integration capabilities within the existing system landscape, openness of the data architecture and avoidance of lock-in effects, collaboration and culture, as well as commercial terms, including risk and exit strategies. What matters most is not so much the selection of criteria as their weighting\u2014in regulated environments, the emphasis shifts toward <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ventum-consulting.com\/en\/expertise\/cyber-security-compliance\/\">compliance and information security<\/a>, while in production-oriented environments, it shifts toward integration capability. We coordinate this weighting with IT and business units before approaching the first vendor.   \t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b80f434\" data-id=\"b80f434\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-aecd226 elementor-flip-box--effect-fade space-between hover-offset elementor-widget elementor-widget-flip-box\" data-id=\"aecd226\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"flip-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-flip-box\" tabindex=\"0\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-flip-box__layer elementor-flip-box__front\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-flip-box__layer__overlay\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-flip-box__layer__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-flip-box__layer__title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMarket and Vendor Analysis\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-flip-box__layer elementor-flip-box__back\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-flip-box__layer__overlay\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-flip-box__layer__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-flip-box__layer__description\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWe provide a structured overview of the relevant vendor landscape\u2014from software manufacturers and platform providers to system integrators and implementation partners.
