Wed, Sep 7th 2005: Sydney, Australia: Contracts On Show
Project managers and procurement officers face many complexities with traditional software projects and suppliers.
Free / Open Source Software (FOSS) adds even more aspects to consider:
* The single-vendor model is dead.
* Need for vendor accountability: who is responsible?
* Purchasing contracts geared to proprietary software.
