• Evaluate current technology before investing in new, you never know what you’ll find in your shed
• Speak to a number of vendors for additional services, if they wont work with what you have walk away
• Embrace open source, but factor in support and development costs
• Speak to people who have done this before – Try Obis Omni for contacts

Beware of hidden development dangers
• Ensure you understand requirements (again)

consulting throughout• Cross your fingers!

Advantages of small iterations• Early returns and cost justifications

Project failure points• Strategy
