HOW DOES NEO|SO CHOOSE
WHICH PROGRAMS TO DEVELOP?
Local governments buy hundreds
of different products and services.
Here are some of the initial
questions that we ask when considering specific product and service categories to pursue.
- Are our customers currently spending money on this product/service?
- Is there a batch of customer contracts for this product/service expiring
soon?
- Can we assemble at least $2 million in committed spending to bring to market?
- Are there opportunities to
save our customers money
and time by aggregating this product/service?
