Clear, informative, and transparent communication.
July 12, 2024 at 8:38 am in reply to: Do you have templates for paperwork such as a Request for Quote or Request for Proposal? #61908Brian MingerParticipantI previous roles, I have established templates or have used pre-determined templates within the organization’s enterprise procurement processes for RFP/RFQs.
Many procurement processes are owned by the enterprise procurement and templates are setup in the ERP. The linkage back to the ITAM Program repositories is often the bigger success point when working overall within an organization’s enterprise procurement programs.

July 12, 2024 at 8:32 am in reply to: How will you explain the various job titles to the Human Resources Department? #61906Brian MingerParticipantI would pull definitions from the various IAITAM sources to compile a valid job description for each. It may have overlap in the others areas of the organization and I would consolidate and look to collect buy in from those areas to setup the dotted line connections between the core ITAM Program and the other areas that are linked to it.

If not, what’s one thing you can do when you return to encourage that? #60455Brian MingerParticipantWe do but it is shrouded in mystery for the Configuration & Asset Manager. As we move forward in building a program, we will see where we might be able to lower the cost of ITAM through proper and effective ITAD.

Brian MingerParticipantIf it were up to me, we would be focused on getting our mission statement and core efforts outlined in Program Management with a true Program Manager. Policy Management would be essential to the management of organization behavior toward our assets and their tracking and disposal. We would use Comm & Education Management to build out training and continual support of ITAM knowledge across the organization.
