At a glance
A fair evaluation records what was demonstrated, what needs configuration or a third party, what is planned and what was not shown. Test the operational hand-off you need to improve—not a polished feature tour.
01 / Define
Turn current friction into a test.
Describe the failure you want to reduce: missing survey evidence, proof confusion, workshop reconstruction, installation exceptions or unclear actuals. Name the role and success condition.
02 / Test
Include a change, a block and an export.
Ask the supplier to run your scenario, change an approved detail, block a delivery condition, show who can release it and export the resulting record. Record the observed result and dependency.
Score only what you saw. If a step was described as planned, configured by a partner, or unavailable in the session, write that status. Do not convert a roadmap answer into a pass, and do not treat Spectra's public sample as evidence that another product, or Spectra itself, is live.
03 / Decide
Keep data and commercial questions explicit.
Verify current terms, total cost, implementation effort, migration responsibility, permissions, security, retention, export, deletion and support directly with each supplier.
