No More “Chasing Waterfalls” or “Going Down Rabbit Holes”

EDITOR’S NOTE – Before you read the post below, I am stepping back from covering this solution provider. As I said to a colleague last night, “I don’t know – between you and me, I don’t have a good feeling about this . . .”

The only three pieces of advice I would offer my public sector followers are:

🤔 Keep Dr. Elouise Epstein 🏳️‍⚧️comment on one of my most recent posts in mind when engaging with any solution provider: “Jon W. Hansen, perhaps the hype is a natural part of the innovation cycle 😃 “

👍 Read my September 2007 post on how Bob Sievert, Robert Gleason, and the rest of the Commonwealth of Virginia team have achieved enduring success with their eVA initiative (especially note the reference to technology’s role in said success).

⁉ Get the complete answers to the questions I raised in my post below. (Link to yesterday’s post – What does SOVRA mean when they talk about “A New Brand Transforming Public Procurement?”)

In the meantime, I will continue to focus on my quest to find what I consider to be the top 4 or 5 ProcureTech solution providers based on my high-tech and procurement industry experience.

♒ In short, “no more chasing waterfalls” or “going down rabbit holes.” 🐰
