Revenue Opportunities, Technical Challenges and Operational Issues for Software and Services Providers

Wednesday 17^th March 2010 - RORC Club, 20 St James’s Place, London, SW1A 1NN

Strategy Partners invites you to a specific, in-depth, one-day Executive Briefing in London for its clients on 17^thMarch 2010 to help you understand the commercial, technical and operational issues that the new version of MoReq will address.

The last thing content management vendors need in 2010 is standards getting in the way of revenues. So it is crucial that vendors across Europe understand how to position and exploit new initiatives like MoReq. They do not need to develop products for which there is no demand, but avoid being locked out of bids when the RFPs emerge that specify MoReq.

All the previous approaches to MoReq will be obsolete by July 2010, because the EU –sponsored DLM Forum has committed in February 2010 to updating and rewriting the MoReq specification. The outcome will be an updated MoReq in 2010 that will be adopted by Government agencies and regulated commercial companies as a records and content management standard for purchasing new systems. In the UK, MoReq-based RFPs are likely to replace the National Archives PRO2 standard, and we have analysed the likely demand in other markets and sectors.

Strategy Partners, as members of the MoReq Governance Board, has been working to develop a more practical approach than MoReq2. We believe that future purchases need to help, not hinder, the adoption of pragmatic new approaches to records management and intellectual property re-use. We can all do without more obstacles to adoption, unnecessary overheads and boring paper-only approaches that are being painfully shoe-horned onto modern email, content management, website, social media and mobile apps and services.

This intensive workshop from Strategy Partners’ Market Specialists will:

▼          Update you on the latest MoReq specifications, from the people that are actively helping to generate the new version

▼          Inform you on the likely market development scenarios to answer the question: Where is the Money? How will MoReq impact future bids, software and services?

▼          Analyse the competitive landscape acrossEurope, from Microsoft to Open Source, from large and small vendors

▼          Describe the demand for the new MoReq in different sectors and countries across Europe

▼          Advise you on how to create and position a MoReq-based product, technically

▼          Show how the certification process is being updated, and how you can gain certification at minimal cost and delay.

▼          Explain what you need to do to understand more about the specification and its impact on your existing clients and prospects markets

This Briefing is for Strategy Partners clients.
