2015 SSP 37th Annual Meeting
Concurrent 1A: Choosing the Right Technology…
No one has unlimited resources. No product can start with unlimited funding. How do you respond to new needs, new delivery formats, and the increased need for editorial and production efficiency when resources are limited? When making technology selections, the decisions you make now can have long-term impact. How can you optimize your choices? Navigating the technology solution landscape requires being able to articulate a strategy and objectives, identifying and prioritizing requirements, evaluating and balancing tradeoffs, and gathering and analyzing information from potential tools or partners to select the most appropriate solution. In this session, a panel of representatives from different publishing organizations will discuss their experiences with selecting technology solutions under constraints. They will share specific examples of a technology selection, their strategy and decision-making approach and lessons learned. Attendees can pick up valuable tips on selection approaches that they may apply to their own situations.
