Building on the license analysis and license consulting, we review the feasibility of potential savings from both a technological and a commercial perspective.

License optimization and contract optimization focus on the following questions:

Do you know your contracts and possible alternatives?
Have you made any company acquisitions or divestments in the past?
Do you have an overview of your current software usage?
Do you know the contract and licensing models of the manufacturers?
What is your strategy for the future?
