Cafe Talks: a series of project community support sessions with topics, dates and locations. These are informal sessions designed to share and strengthen our knowledge of relevant topics through discussion and collaboration with other staff on an ongoing basis. This is a volunteer effort that hopes to organize 2-3 events each year based on ideas and requests submitted to ist-cop@mit.edu.
May 17, 2012: Lessons Learned Working With Vendors
Peers share what they have learned working with vendors, from selection and negotiation through knowledge transfer and termination: a panel of IS&T staff who shared their experiences working with vendors. As this was a broad subject, a short survey was offered to gauge what questions the audience was most interested in having the panelists speak to first: http://www.surveygizmo.com/s3/776319/Lessons-Learned-from-Working-with-Vendors
A summary of the event in the form of questions and answers is available here: Vendor Management Cafe Talk.pdf
