The British Computer Society (BCS) believes that large organisations can suffer badly when IT procurement goes wrong, but for small to medium enterprises (SMEs) it can be disastrous.
Any text that can help those who run SMEs to avoid this fate is to be welcomed. This is a handbook which is able to help in such cases. It assists SMEs to manage that risk by reducing their exposure to financial ruin when sourcing new IT services and products. There is now a great choice of such services and products and professional guidance is essential. Readers, particularly managers of such concerns/should consider purchasing this and other guides that are available.
