Ever wanted to switch SaaS vendors, but found it too challenging, expensive, or simply impractical?
Your choices are simple - and unenviable. Either stick with the unsuitable or sub-standard vendor, or face spiraling costs and condemn the organization to continuous firefighting as it ‘makes do’ - probably jeopardising growth ambitions in the process.
This is Vendor Lock-In - and it’s more avoidable than you realize.
In this webinar, James Meads, host of The Procurement Software podcast, and Nick Riley, Director of Procurement at Vertice, will host a panel of procurement leaders who have seen, experienced and thoroughly resented vendor lock-in, and what they do now to avoid it. And why combatting Vendor Lock-In is more than a cost reduction exercise, but is in fact one of the clearest measures of a procurement team’s strategic impact and influence.
What you will learn:
● What is Vendor Lock-In, and why it is a bigger problem now than it ever has been before.
● The procurement oversights that create Vendor-Lock in.
● How the panel of procurement leaders have previously fallen victim to Vendor Lock-In, the impact it had, and what they have learned to avoid it in the future.
● What mastering Vendor Lock-In shows about procurement’s role in the business at a strategic level.
