About the event
3Kites and Kemp IT Law LLP Webinar
Tech is fast becoming the beating heart of the legal services world. As the costs and operational criticality of major law firm systems continue to rise, how much due diligence is enough? What is considered best practice to get the most out of the Firm’s investment? From the technical evaluation side, Paul Longhurst from 3KitesConsulting will discuss how you:
- limit the time spent on products your firm will never implement,
- have confidence that suppliers mean what they say when selling to you,
- balance user sentiment with functionality and costs, and
- get the best deal for the firm without alienating the vendor?
From the legal side, the key word is clarity and Richard Kemp from Kemp IT Law will cover:
- clarity about vendor commitments as discussions move from RfP to contract;
- clarity around contract structure – the ‘who’s doing what’ is getting more complex as key elements of the system are increasingly sourced from the cloud
- clarity around regulatory burden – GDPR, cybersecurity, operational resilience and ESG
- clarity around managing risk – what’s the worst that can happen?
