href=\"https:\/\/streamlinelegalops.com\/\">Streamline Legal Ops<\/a><br><br>\n\n<b>What if the biggest risk in a legal tech project is not the software you choose, but the operational groundwork you skipped before you bought it?<\/b><br><br>\n\nIn this episode of <i>In-House Matters by Lawcadia<\/i>, we hear from Jane Platt, founder of Streamline Legal Ops, as she shares her perspective on what legal teams need to get right before buying or implementing technology. Drawing on more than 20 years inside public company legal departments, Jane has worked across contract processes, data migrations, compliance programmes, records management and legal technology implementations.\n<br><br>\nThis conversation explores why legal teams often jump too quickly to vendor selection, product demos and implementation before they have properly understood their current processes, data, documents, stakeholders and decision points. Jane discusses the foundational work that helps legal teams move to clear requirements, better procurement decisions, and successful implementations.\n<br><br>\nThis practical 25-minute session covers:\n<br>\n<ul>\n  <li>Why legal tech readiness starts well before vendor selection<\/li>\n  <li>Why implementation and adoption success depends on involving the right people early<\/li>\n  <li>How to understand your current process before designing the future state \u2014 collecting user stories and pain points<\/li>\n  <li>Practical steps small and growing legal teams can take before a larger technology investment<\/li>\n \n<\/ul>\n\nThis episode offers practical guidance for in-house legal teams preparing for legal technology, with a focus on getting the foundations right early so they can reduce rework, support adoption and make better buying decisions.\n\n<br><br>\nYou can also access a 2-minute Legal Tech Readiness Checklist kindly provided by Streamline Legal Ops.&nbsp;
