Overview:In the high-stakes world of large corporate IT, conducting a Request-for-Proposal (RFP) for an enterprise system is like orchestrating a symphony of diverse stakeholders, intricate technical requirements, and strategic business objectives. Join Winnie Lai-Fong as she shares the art and science behind executing a win-win RFP process that satisfies both internal stakeholders and potential vendors.Get answers to these questions:- Who do you invite to play - Set the stage for success by clarifying the project's “why” and curating a list of worthy contenders.- What does the RFP include - The content is woven from the threads of user needs, technical specifications, and operational demands, with stakeholder management as the vital element in the success of the entire endeavour.- What are the rules - Establish clear rules of engagement, including a robust evaluation framework that paves the way for a fair and transparent selection process.- What to watch out for - Be wary of various pitfalls involving the vendors and the internal organization.Come join this presentation and find out how you can help your organization to transform the daunting RFP process into a strategic opportunity to align technology with business goals.Program Format:This is an interactive workshop.Q&A:Come with questions from your RFP challenges, or just share your own experiences.Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/427995

Join the IEEE Toronto Instrumentation & Measurement – Robotics & Automation Joint Chapter for a talk on the Building Inclusivity into Software Engineering, presented by Dr. Mariam Guizani from Queen's University.[]Tuesday, October 22, 2024 @ 5:30 – 6:30 PMAbstract: Individuals often develop software based on their own cognitive preferences and perspectives. However, given the diverse ways in which people process information, it becomes crucial to examine how we can effectively test and implement software with inclusivity in mind.This presentation will delve into the relationship between inclusivity and technology, addressing two main questions: What are inclusivity bugs? And how can we find and fix them in software products?In this presentation, Dr. Guizani will introduce a Why/Where/Fix systematic inclusivity debugging process to help find inclusivity bugs (using the GenderMag cognitive walkthrough method), localize the Information Architecture (IA) faults behind them, and then fix the IA to remove the inclusivity bugs found. Additionally, she will share insights from various teams using GenderMag to enhance inclusivity in their products and processes.Speaker(s): Mariam Guizani, Ph.D.Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/432370
