| Inviting Database Bids | Document Your Needs |
|
- Outsourcing enables you to utilize services and expertise that is not on your payroll. But when the projects to be delegated to the consultants are vaguely defined and undocumented, it becomes a big waste of time and financial resources.
- The tendency is to assume that the consultancy to who we are outsourcing are the best for every job required to develop the database application; this is far from it.
- A database system is created to fill a gap in your business, and that gap consists of business issues. That means you must work very closely with the database developers to ensure that they understand the business side of the story.
- It is best to put together a team of your own staff who will work through the business challenges you encounter, document them and define the expected contribution of the database application in helping to resolve these problems.
- These are some of the activities involved in analyzing and documenting needs; they are purely business tasks and do not necessarily depend on any database technologies.
