I did Spectrum consulting for years for CA and for my previous employer. I can advise you on who the good CA consulting partners are (unless you want to pay between 200-300 hr for CA staff) and how to screen the good from the bad.

I'm the only one working on our Spectrum implementation right now, and my experience is limited. My manager would feel better if we had reliable access to someone with good Spectrum experience, at least until our implementation is complete. �����re looking to retain someone part-time, remotely that I could bounce questions and ideas off of on an as-needed basis. There probably wouldn't be much hands-on work, but rather it would be answering questions from me, mostly around best practices or Spectrum details. Does anyone have any experience, good or bad, with using a contractor in this manner? I've only ever had contractors on-site for specific tasks before, but this would be more like retaining an attorney. With regard to finding someone, how does one evaluate the quality of someone's Spectrum experience? What are good interview questions? I didn't see anything about evaluating candidates in the archives. If I get some good questions, I'll post them to the Wiki. If you know someone you could recommend (person or company), please email me off-list ([email protected]). I hope that I haven't overstepped my bounds by asking more of a personnel question than a technical one. I truly value all the excellent information I've received from the community, and do not wish to offend anyone.
