Chandler/May's 21-Step Checklist Identify the Critical Factors for System
Integration Project Success

The Selection and Benchmark Guide grading system simplifies subcontractor
selection; the guide includes diverse selection criteria such as excess
capacity percentage required, documentation control, pending litigation and
excess staff turnover

HUNTSVILLE, Ala., June 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Contractors and Prime System
Integrators use smaller System Integrators to build parts of the larger
products they produce. This is especially true in the Military world. In fact,
the Government and Department of Defense actually dictates to the larger
companies what percentage has to go to the smaller companies.

Much of the innovative and production work is done by these second-tier
integrators ($25 Million - $100+ Million in Revenue). Second-tier integrators
hire third-tier integrators and so on. Picking the right System Integrator for
your project is the focus of this System Integration Selection and Benchmark
Guide.

This 4-Page Benchmark Guide aids in the selection of potential System
Integration vendors. A numerical score assesses each potential system
integrator as a potential integration/manufacturing partner for future
projects.

"It is not only a comparison benchmark for selecting integrators, but an
excellent predictor of future outcome of complex integration, design and
production projects," said Scott Owen, VP of Engineering at Chandler/May. "It
is no surprise that those that grade higher on the checklist also do better in
the implementation of the project."

The guide is written by system integration experts at Chandler/May who are
both on the receiving end of interviews by larger companies and who also hire
many smaller integrators to help on their projects. The Guide is free and may
