Dear Mr. Kordecki:
I am pleased to present the report you authorized on November 19, 2015, regarding the feasibility of potential new database programs for the upgrade to our computers.
An analysis of both ACT! Premium and Intuit QuickBase Premier found that, although both alternatives offered the ability to transfer data from one database to the other, the ACT! Premium program met our chosen criteria in cost, quality, user-friendliness, compatibility, and implementation time. It is therefore the recommendation that we utilize ACT! Premium for our upcoming database upgrade.
Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to research potential database programs. I appreciate your consideration of my recommendation. Should you have any questions regarding this report, please do not hesitate to contact me at (980) 313-9404.
Sincerely,
Enclosure: Justification Report
