What you need to know about leading a software buying initiative in your organization
When researching and selecting a new software product, water professionals should begin by clearly defining their organization’s needs, such as monitoring, reporting, leak detection, or conservation planning. Next, they should assess current workflows and data sources to ensure compatibility. Researching available software options and seeking recommendations from industry peers is essential. Key features like real-time data integration, scalability, and regulatory compliance support should be evaluated. Professionals should also request demos, compare pricing models, and investigate options for configuration that will prevent the software from becoming obsolete in the future. Finally, discuss the options for a pilot program to help validate the software’s effectiveness before making a final decision and implementation plan.
