Services
How I help
RFP Development
I write requirements that vendors have to respond to on your terms, not theirs. Structured evaluation criteria that surface the differences that matter.
Vendor Evaluation
Side-by-side analysis of vendor responses, demos, and reference checks. Scoring frameworks that keep emotion out of the decision.
Contract Negotiation
I review SLAs, exit clauses, data ownership provisions, and pricing structures, and negotiate from an informed position.
Performance Management
Quarterly vendor reviews against contracted SLAs. Early identification of performance issues before they become operational problems.
Technology Consolidation
Rationalize your vendor portfolio. Identify overlaps, gaps, and opportunities to simplify your stack and reduce costs.
Vendor Risk Assessment
Evaluate vendor financial health, security posture, and business continuity planning before you commit to a long-term relationship.
ClearStack accepts no referral fees, commissions, or incentives from any vendor. My recommendations are based entirely on your requirements and my independent assessment. That independence is not a marketing claim; it is a structural commitment.
