Technology selection has consequences long after deployment.
Supplier choice can influence interoperability, cybersecurity, maintenance, access to support and the ability to adapt or replace technology over time. Evaluation should therefore consider supplier dependencies and lifecycle support alongside the immediate technical specification.
