Technology and e-commerce
Today, information technology is essential to most businesses, whether used for conducting business, supporting internal business processes and systems, or both.
Every aspect of technology – from buying, supplying, installing, testing and using through designing, implementing and developing to maintaining, supporting, disposing of and renewing IT systems and solutions – requires careful planning and proper documentation.
Problems can and frequently do arise as a result of late delivery, ineffective implementation or project delays, budget over-run, scope creep and non-conformance to specification. To manage these and other issues it is vital to have in place well-drafted contracts.
