Acquisition Plan Document

You can use an Acquisition Plan Document when managing software projects that involve acquiring software and bringing products and services in-house. An Acquisition Plan also help you plan how you to take possession of a business, service or software that you plan to acquire, for example, during a merge or when partnering with another software company.
Use this Acquisition Plan to:
  • Manage the acquisition of hardware, software, and services
  • Define key acquisition dates; identify hardware and software specifications
  • Prepare an approach to contract management
  • Ensure the availability of funding; provide Evaluation personnel with data for evaluating proposals
  • Ensure that vendors have adequate data for preparing bids
