- Summary of requirements expressed and presentation of conclusions from the comparative study, incorporating technical, organizational, budgetary, and security criteria
Client benefits
- A motivated team of IT and Procurement personnel, united around a shared hosting project
- The ability to select, thanks to APL’s methodology, neutrality, and expertise, the shared hosting scenario that best fits the association’s short- and medium-term needs: outsourcing, or the design of new IT facilities
