“A Blueprint for Software & Cloud Lifecycle Management” 

Many organisations are struggling to ensure that on-going licensing costs are aligned to usage and contracts fit for purpose. With many organisations undergoing significant digital transformation, many legacy agreements do not align to rapidly changing business requirements.  Complex licensing rules and increasing platform complexity results in purchases being in poor alignment to IT roadmaps with procurement struggling to gain clarity around existing licensing usage, risk and validated future demand. Not being technically or operationally optimised significantly reduces the leverage an organization has in commercial negotiations with strategic vendors.

Delivering optimised commercial outcomes, mitigating budget risk, maintaining control and ensuring investment value requires a holistic approach to understanding and implementing the necessary Software & Cloud Lifecycle Management (SCLM) target operating model.  In our session will explore the relationship between Optimisation, Lifecycle Governance and Trustworthy Data, and the skills required to leverage technology investments within complex enterprise organizations.

The session will provide a practical fit for purpose blueprint to guide your organisation on its SCLM journey, helping your organisation to innovate and collaborate to deliver successfully negotiated optimized outcomes.   During the session Chris and Nigel will provide an insight into the challenges faced by other organisations as they transform their digital estates, reduce costs and mitigate potentially damaging risk.
