Asset Optimization

Assessment, Analysis and Sustainable Optimization of Your Software Licenses
A structured asset optimization process provides complete transparency across your software estate and establishes the foundation for technical, financial, and licensing improvements.

Assessment

The first step of successful Software Asset Management is a comprehensive assessment of your existing software environment. Installed software, available license entitlements, and procurement processes are analyzed in detail.

In addition, we provide valuable insights into licensing models, purchasing channels, and their commercial advantages and disadvantages, creating the foundation for informed decisions and a long-term licensing strategy.

Optimization

Based on the assessment, we identify opportunities to optimize your software licensing environment. This includes detecting duplicate licenses, unused software, and opportunities for consolidation and modernization.

We also consider current Microsoft technologies and migration scenarios to maximize the value of your software investments while reducing future licensing costs.

Objectives

Our objective is to provide complete, transparent, and audit-ready license documentation. You gain full visibility into your licensing position and establish the foundation for a compliant and cost-efficient software environment.

Upon request, and following the successful completion of the Software Asset Management engagement, we can issue a certification as a Microsoft SAM Managed Service Partner, valid for one year.
