Our company recently gave away copies of the Institute of Directors book on 'Managing your Software Assets’ as a promotional offer. The success was phenomenal, demonstrating the current levels of concern regarding this subject. ITAMS is advisor to many global class clients on software asset management matters ranging from licence management to software discovery recognition, how to handle vendor audit challenges, software moves, adds, deletions and changes processes, licence reconciliation and many other areas. Our recent SAM projects have included work at the worlds largest oil company andthe best known Bank in England. Software asset management is a ‘hot’ topic right now, driven by a new ISO standard, software vendors trying to obtain more revenue through software compliance, industry bodies beating their drums, legal pressures from new legislation such as Sarbanes-Oxley, and also internal pressures to control software spend and operations more effectively. Never has personal and corporate risk to software asset management been higher. Our approach is software vendor and industry body independent. We do not supply volume software, meaning our clients licensing situation is kept entirely confidential from regulators, software resellers and vendors. Think of us as the 'angel-on-your-shoulder' ; we can give you the inside track on how industry bodies and software vendors work, assisting you to optimise your activities in terms of saving money, reducing risk and increasing operational efficiency.   Entitlement Processes ISO19770-1   Client Testimonial “The role and importance of externally acquired software has changed dramatically in recent years, to the point now where it has to be regarded as a business asset and managed as such. Software asset management has become an imperative, not an option….The core message therefore is that software asset management strategies should be director-led. They should be demanded by the boardroom, not proffered by the IT department” George Cox, Director General, Institute of Directors
