Cost reduction initiatives are an essential component in driving company profitability and the IT budget is not exempt from scrutiny.
Reducing or perhaps, more appropriately, optimising IT costs requires an expert eye to best uncover where costs can potentially be cut without creating unacceptable business risk.
ITSS provides the experience needed to uncover where costs might be cut. With no interest or agenda which ties us to particular technologies, systems, suppliers or a preference for internal staffing or external service options we are well placed to focus solely on the business need.
At the same time we are also well placed to advise where there is under investment in IT and where false economies are being made.
ITSS procurement projects focus on delivering the same or better IT products or services at lower prices and comprise a clear and structured approach, with forensic analysis of the business IT costs and service levels that are in place and the business needs. We then source lower cost supply options and monitor and audit that the expected savings are delivered. These projects require minimal effort from our clients and where clear benchmarks can be established and agreed we can give our clients the option of transferring the risk of the initiative to us, paying our fees from the audited savings that are actually delivered.
