The Vested Toolkit a free download containing some of our most popular Vested tools you will need along your Vested journey. We’d like to tell you a little more about it…
What’s In It For You
The complete Vested Toolkit contains over 100 decision-making tools, templates and resources. We’ve picked some of our favorite tools that are essential to get started on your Vested journey and are making them available as part of our Open Source Material. We’ve picked these tools for our Open Source Toolkit because they are essential to get you started (e.g., stakeholder analysis and project plan) or can be used for any deal (e.g., Requirements Roadmap or risk assessment tool).
The selected Open Source tools will help you:
- Determine if Vested is the right sourcing business model for you.
- Share the Vested concept with key stakeholders as you work to ensure organizational approval to move toward implementing a Vested agreement.
- Understand the essential steps that will be necessary to create an actual Vested agreement with your partner(s).
