In recent years, CIOs have encountered unprecedented changes driven by external factors. These changes have fundamentally altered employee work environments and customer service expectations. This rapid, often unplanned transformation has resulted in technical debt, additional costs, and increased complexity that now need to be addressed.
Organisations are now looking to modernise their IT, retiring old legacy software and applications, reducing costs and offering new services to their businesses and clients. However, major change must be modelled to understand the contractual and licensing implications, achieving desired outcomes and minimising risk.

Do you understand the licensing implications for major IT change?
Our team of experts will analyse your current contracts, entitlements, inventory, and usage to identify and mitigate any compliance risks. We will provide optimisation opportunities for a defined vendor or vendors, typically through an Optimisation and Licensing Position (OLP). Using this baseline, we can model the implications of any major business change, project, or modernisation program on the vendor(s) licensing.
We can also model different scenarios by integrating updated perspectives (High-Level Design) from your organisation’s enterprise and/or infrastructure architecture with input from your Procurement and ITAM/SAM teams. Using this combined data, we can apply one or more scenarios to illustrate the licensing cost and risk implications of potential decisions
