Tom,
I just listened to your podcast interview with Ann Rockley. Thank you for making this available. My proposal writing team is taking initial steps into CMS, so I shared some of Ann’s comments on factors leading to implementation failure.
I’m a member of the Orange County STC (California).
Keep up the great service.
Thanks for the note, Bill. Be sure to listen to the Chris Thompson podcast on searching for a CMS. It also covers relevant topics.
