As anyone who has tried to introduce software into a company knows, there are many pitfalls for the unwary, and the ramifications on making the wrong choice are often long-term. Member Al Sterritt will lead a discussion on choosing software packages. The discussion will focus on engaging the participants in the process, identifying the requirements, investigating the software company, selecting the software, testing the software against requirements and selling the chosen software to the participants. Please invite your work colleagues and any others who may be interested. There is no cost in attending and bookings are unnecessary. The meeting will be held Tuesday 19th June, 5.30 for 6.00pm at Engineers Australia House, 21 Bedford Street, North Melbourne. (Go to the top end of Elizabeth Street and head left when you reach the large roundabout and flagpole.)
