What is being bought
Software Asset Management (SAM) is a strategic business discipline focused on maximizing the value and minimizing the risk associated with an organization’s software assets. It encompasses the end-to-end lifecycle management of software covering procurement, deployment, maintenance, utilization, and retirement to ensure compliance, cost-efficiency, and operational effectiveness. The primary objectives of Software Asset Management (SAM) are to drive down IT expenditure, mitigate legal and compliance risks associated with software ownership and usage, and enhance operational agility and end-user productivity across the organization. At Kent and Essex Police we have a solution we are currently using and have been using for many years. We are now undertaking a strategic review to assess whether a more cost-effective solution is available that can deliver equivalent or enhanced functionality without compromising the capabilities currently provided by the current solution We are looking to establish communication with potential suppliers and initiate preliminary discussions regarding possible solution offerings. Please reach out to: Lovejoy.Mutizwa@beds.police.uk to discuss.
