Buyer Evaluation Model

What serious evidence looks like

A provider should demonstrate more than familiarity with the underlying technology. RankGlobal assesses relevant outcomes, architecture, evaluation quality, governance and operational ownership.

01
Relevant production outcomes
Documented deployments in comparable environments, not just pilots.
02
Architecture & integration
How the solution connects into existing data, tools and systems.
03
Testing and evaluation
Structured evaluation practice behind the delivered capability.
04
Data & security controls
Handling of sensitive data across the delivery lifecycle.
05
Human oversight
Where humans review, approve or can override system outputs.
06
Monitoring & support
Ongoing monitoring and support once a system is live.
