Read how Mercer University benefited from The Tambellini Group IT Procurement and Contract Negotiation service:

"In the spring of 2008, Mercer University engaged the services of Vicki Tambellini and her team to help us negotiate pricing and contract terms and conditions with Campus Management Corporation for the purchase, implementation, and ongoing support of their One Campus Ecosystem. As anyone who's ever completed this process knows, contract negotiations for an institutional ERP system can be a long and potentially difficult process. Vicki Tambellini and her colleagues helped to navigate us through the process offering insight, advice, suggestions, and support all along the way making it much easier to reach our goals. I'm confident that, due to the expertise and advice that she provided, Mercer's needs were much more equitably accommodated throughout this process. We couldn't have done nearly as good of a job without their very able assistance!"

-Mickey Belote, Associate Vice President for Information Technology, Mercer University


The University of Nebraska:
"The University of Nebraska system utilized both Vicki Tambellini and Paula Goldman of Tambellini Group (at that time Synergy3) in negotiations with finalists in our recent negotiations to purchase an SIS solution.  Several things come to mind where they brought significant value to the process.
In brief:
   A process that could have taken months was reduced to weeks.   Their
   responsiveness, whether it was schedule changes (to meet with vendors,
   internal audiences, our Board) or contract turnarounds was outstanding.
   They drove honesty into the process, cut out a lot of the vendor
   intramurals and we got to a financial result with which we were very
   pleased.
   I appreciated the sense of partnership in pursuing our solution.    The
   Provost and I ran the process, but they were a steady hand on the
   shoulder through this important undertaking.
"
-David E. Lechner, Vice President for Business and Finance
