Mergers and Acquisitions

Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) can be a complex process. With IT Systems having to come together and IT projects to ensure the smooth transition, one critical aspect that is often overlooked is the management of software assets.

Our M&A services include:

• Understanding Software Assets
  Conducting a comprehensive inventory of all software licenses and applications. This visibility helps in identifying redundant or underutilised software, enabling informed decisions regarding software consolidation and optimisation.
• Merging Vendor Contracts, Contacts and Portals
  We handle the administrative tasks by contacting vendors, updating the organisation’s name and contacts, consolidating vendor contracts, and completing asset transfers. We also review vendor portals to ensure the appropriate internal contacts have the correct access and update software license information to ensure future renewals are accurate and co-termed.
• Cost Savings and Efficiency
  Once we have a clear understanding of the software assets and their usage, we can ensure that redundant software is removed during the renewal process. With increased license counts, there may be opportunities to negotiate better deals. We also help avoid unnecessary software purchases where there is a surplus of licenses and ensure that maintenance for unused software is not renewed unnecessarily.
