Take AssessmentPhase 0 is the critical stage before implementation where key decisions about solution scope, vendor selection, and implementation approach are made. It's where strategy, planning and software selection occur — long before any implementation consultants arrive. Most HR tech failures stem from poor Phase 0 decisions.
HR technology failures fall into three categories: solving the wrong problem, choosing the wrong vendor, and botched implementation. Most of these can be traced back to poor decisions made during Phase 0 — not the implementation itself.
Unlike large consultancies that focus on implementation, SelectionWise specialises exclusively in Phase 0. We're completely vendor-agnostic — no commissions, no partnerships. Our focus is solely on getting your vendor selection right.
Absolutely. The SelectionWise Toolkit gives you everything you need to run the process yourself — the method, templates, checklists, and AI accelerators. Consulting is available if you want expert support at key decision points.
