  • Winning Presentations: Time, Questions & Building Trust

    Shortlist presentations are one of the most valuable opportunities in public procurement — but most agencies and vendors are still not using that time effectively.

    In this episode of the GovTech podcast, Megan Seaton and Robert Kornovich break down what makes a vendor interview meaningful, productive, and worth the committee’s time. They discuss why relying too heavily on slides kills engagement, why Q&A is where the real insights emerge, and how both sides can create the kind of conversation that builds trust early.

    From ideal time limits and question structure to reading the room and staying human, this episode redefines what a strong vendor presentation should look like in modern government procurement.

  • Camera ON! How to Ace Vendor Presentations & Q&A

    If you’ve ever sat through a vendor presentation where no one turned on their camera, this one’s for you.

    In this episode of GovTech, Megan Seaton and Robert Kornovich dive into how to make shortlist presentations and Q&A sessions more engaging — for both sides of the table.

    They discuss why cameras matter, how body language and dialogue can completely change outcomes, and what both vendors and local governments can do to make those 60 minutes actually count.

    Because business isn’t built on PDFs — it’s built on people.

  • ERP Modernization: Avoiding the Dinosaur Trap & Boosting Success

    Legacy systems can keep governments stuck in the past—and the longer you wait to modernize, the harder it becomes to move forward.

    In this episode of the GovTech Podcast, Megan Seaton and Robert Kornovich explain how public agencies can avoid what they call the “dinosaur trap”—the point where outdated systems cost more to maintain than replace.

    They share insights on:

    • Recognizing when your ERP system has reached its tipping point
    • Building modernization strategies that reduce long-term risk
    • How leadership and change management determine project success

    Because modernization isn’t just about new technology—it’s about creating systems that evolve with you.

    This episode covers:

    • Why compressed timelines create risk
    • How to align readiness, staffing, and vendor strategy
    • The role of accountability in protecting public investment
    • What “success” actually means after go-live
