IBM Software ESL Review, Defence & Negotiation

Optimise Your IBM Software Licensing and Avoid Costly Compliance Issues

Does your business manage a substantial IBM software estate, including IBM Mainframe software or other critical software licences? Ensuring compliance with IBM's licensing rules is essential to avoid hefty fines. Non-compliance could result in significant charges to bring your usage in line with your licences, and these charges are often backdated, potentially costing your business millions.

Recent trends have shown that IBM is increasing its prices across many product lines, particularly during software renewals. It's crucial for businesses to seek expert assistance when navigating these renewals and negotiating the most advantageous terms. Unfortunately, many companies leave these tasks to internal IT staff or general procurement teams, which can lead to overpayment and missed savings opportunities.

If any of these scenarios sound familiar, or if you're interested in the services below, contact Baby Blue today. Our team of Harvard-trained negotiators and IBM licensing specialists are here to help. Our fees are typically offset many times over by the savings and cost avoidance we secure for our clients.
