The Business Case
Your organization likely spends 15-20% of operating budget on software. Our data shows 30-40% is wasted through redundancy, over-licensing, and shadow IT. We fix this systematically in six weeks.
Our Three-Phase Value Delivery
Weeks 1-2: Complete Spend Visibility
We map your entire software footprint through financial system analysis, creating the first accurate view most CFOs have seen of their total vendor landscape. Typical finding: 2x more subscriptions than IT reports.
Weeks 3-4: Optimization Roadmap
We identify specific cost reduction opportunities through utilization analysis, redundancy mapping, and contract review. Every recommendation includes risk assessment and implementation complexity scoring.
Weeks 5-6: Execution & Governance
We execute approved optimizations, renegotiate based on actual usage data, and implement governance frameworks that prevent future sprawl. No theoretical recommendations—only implemented savings.
