whitepaper Choosing a Vendor: 8 Key Points to Consider When You Need to Outsource2009-06-05 SkillSoft
  Even marketing departments at large companies will need to outsource some functions to firms who are more creative and resourceful in specific areas. Most of the time, this is a win-win: you complete projects that your department doesn't have the capacity to do while creating a relationship from which you can learn new trends, technologies, and niches in the industry. However, outsourcing can also come at a price: more palpable risks that the confidentiality of your business data could be breached,less control over the finished product, and higher costs. The four marketing executives featured in this ExecBlueprint discuss how their departments have benefited in their work with vendors to complete more complex and creative projects faster and, in some cases, cheaper. Their primary advice? Select the vendor carefully: ask for references, price quotes, and work samples — and try out first on small projects. Stay in touch frequently and pay on time. Finaly, don't get complacent: seek other bids, keep contract periods short, and assess performance to ensure you're continuing to receive your vendor's best price and efforts.

whitepaper Ramco Systems Case Study: DE Controls2009-06-01 Ramco Systems
  DE Controls was using a standalone system; this made it difficult to have real-time visibility of the overall inventory (especially finished goods). As the inventory was manually maintained it was difficult to track the stocks that were returned from various regions. Valuation of stock on a real-time basis for raw materials and finished goods was also not possible. DE Controls required a comprehensive and integrated online solution, which would address the above challenges and aid them in having real-time visibility of the inventory across locations; a solution which would enable the management to track the supply chain management process and maintain profitability margin for all the sales order traded across the regions. They found Ramco OnDemand ERP to be an ideal fit that would help them to address their challenges and aid growth.
