 TEC's
business is predicated on the fact that every year, in excess of 100 billion dollars are
lost due to IT projects that fail as a result of poor planning and selection. With the
vast majority of these failures and cost overruns, attributed to projects not implemented,
our mission is simple. To provide IT decision makers and advisors with ready and affordable
access to the advanced tools and expertise they require. To this end, we have spent years
developing what has been deemed and aptly described by the industry as "the Rolls Royce of decision support tools". We
deliver concise reports on foss.
 TEC was coined "the Rolls-Royce of decision support tools" by ZDNet
foss, TEC's Knowledge Bases and advanced decision
tools help you measure business value and risk, reduce cost and
time in making informed decisions, automate the RFI/RFP process,
and build a strong case. Free research and newsletter.
Today's more informed buyer
demands proof of performance. The major benefit of being a TEC Certified Vendor, aside from getting
their products on the radar screen of "ready to buy" IT decision makers, worldwide, is that they are
able to use our resources to clearly illustrate product superiority. And, because the information they
provide comes from a totally impartial source, they and the client receive that powerful endorsement
they are both looking for when the products involved do indeed satisfy the buyer's needs in areas such
as foss.
