SAM Standard Service Processes
Check-up
This comprehensive SAM analysis/assessment targets the SAM methodology implemented by your organization. Working together in a workshop setting, we’ll gain a better understanding of your current SAM practice. Our goal is 100% visibility as we provide an assessment of your software asset environment.
Clean-up
The core clean-up step is license analysis, where we compare what’s installed to what’s entitled based on all the different rights, such as downgrade rights or virtualisation rights. Based on the results of our analysis, we will help you purchase the licenses you need, consolidate the licenses you have, adjust existing contracts with publishers, or make recommendations on uninstallation scenarios.
Keeping Control of your Software Portfolio
Software management is not just about avoiding risk; it’s also about delivering value back to the business. With Scarlet SAM practice you will;
- Identify any overlapping software assets or functionality, making your portfolio more streamlined and cost effective
- Keep your software estate up to date, compliant and free of financial risk
- Be advised by our consultants on future purchasing requirements and managed metered licensing profile costs
