Main features
The pilot project in Altair significantly differs from the
standard project – Proof of Concept. The following
comparison presents main differences between the standard
PoC and the TBB project:
TBB (Try Before Buying)
-
It focuses on solving a client’s specific
business situation. It aims to show the value
of the tool in a specific business case
provided by the client.
-
Purpose – to prove the business value for a
specific client in a certain business process.
-
Prepared only on real data provided by the
client.
-
Work with the client – it can also be
presented in the on-site scenario (defects are
not hidden, full transparency of the
solution).
PoC (Proof of Concept)
-
It focuses on the issue – whether it is
possible to do something in a technical
manner. It is often an example of a technical
solution detached from business.
-
Purpose – proof of a technical concept (only).
-
The solution is usually prepared on
demonstration data – suppliers rarerly work in
this phase on data provided by the client.
-
It is prepared most of the time only remotely
(some defects can be hidden).
The Try Before Buying project aims to show business value in
a particular case. Full transparency of the project enables
to see the tool in a real light, without hiding
disadvantages and artificially exaggerating advantages.
