CIRA Method — Identify

Technology selection without vendor bias

Technology gets bought because it's trending, not because it truly fits the business. Our technology selection always starts from the business's requirements, not the vendor's catalog — 100% agnostic evaluation, with objective, comparable criteria.

How we do it

A solution built for your business context, not the vendor's catalog.

Jackson Bohórquez, fundador de Cyrrus, presentando la metodología de evaluación de proveedores

We take a comprehensive approach that covers key factors like your industry, company size, technological maturity, and business processes. Our goal is to offer you a tailored solution that fits your needs and business context perfectly.

  • 360° assessment of your business's sector, size, and technical maturity.
  • 100% agnostic comparison, with no commercial bias toward any brand.
  • Objective, comparable criteria, defined before looking at vendors.
Evaluation criteria

Four dimensions, one verdict

01

Functional

We guarantee short-term fit by solving your company's key operational needs.

02

Technical

We ensure technological maturity, evaluating compatibility to reduce hidden integration costs.

03

Economic

Precise budget-feasibility measurements, ensuring sustainable investment and operating spend.

04

A commitment to business sustainability: we guarantee your company's sustained growth over time.

Our challenge

Selecting solutions built to fit your organization.

The challenge for corporations isn't finding vendors — it's making sure the vendor delivers on its promises and fits the operation without friction. We analyze every variable in record time.

How we solve it

  • We restructure the variables to consider and tie them to the business's real needs.
  • We draft the RFP classified by technical and functional attributes.
  • We support negotiation and contract close, always aiming to generate added value for your organization.

Solution Selection

Frequently asked questions

Yes. We have no commercial partnerships or commissions with ERP, CRM, HCM, or other enterprise software vendors — we evaluate every option against the same four objective criteria (functional, technical, economic, sustainable), regardless of brand.

As a reference, the Identify phase (solution selection) of the CIRA method typically takes 6 to 12 weeks, from the strategic kickoff through contracting support — the 12 process stages described above.

We evaluate the decision against the same objective criteria, even if the process is already underway. Being 100% agnostic lets us validate a choice in progress without bias toward any vendor.

The Request for Proposal document is classified by technical and functional attributes, and paired with proposal intake and evaluation, executive presentations, vendor referencing, and support through contract negotiation.
