“In the first year (1991), we identified 76 products that were seldom or never used and could be eliminated. We saved $1.25MM in software license and maintenance costs.”

Software Asset Management Value
Uncontrolled Budgets
“Over a period of 5 years, our Software budget had tripled.”
Cost Management
“With the help of Isogon’s SoftAudit reports we're now better able to control software costs.”
“Over the past 3 years we have been able to drive down mainframe fully loaded costs/MIP by more than 60%.”
Cost Management has lead to growth
“We've been able to keep software cost increases to a minimum while overall
workload and capacity has more than doubled over the past several years.”
Flexibility aligned with business demand
“We're able to negotiate more flexible
agreements with features that (as an example) can allow us to possibly pick up new products and discard obsolete or low usage products.”

License Compliance
“Armed with the list of products, we determined some products were not licensed properly”
“These licenses were corrected, some at increased cost”
Cost Management
“Some licenses were identified for products no longer installed. These licensed were promptly terminated.”
“In the first year we identified 76 products that were seldom or never used. We saved over $1.3 million in license and maintenance costs.”

Cost Reduction
We were able to eliminate several products and optional add-ons to other products that had little or no use.”
Cost Management
“By understanding what we have, where we have it and who is using it, we have been able to manage our hardware planning more effectively.”
“We can make decisions on how many versions of software we want to
maintain.”
“We identify and re-bill our internal customers for expensive “must have” product that only they are using.”

Software Cost Reduction with MIPS Growth
“Our actual mainframe ISV expenses were 24% less than 5 years ago and we now have a lot more processing.”

IBM Tivoli’s Approach
Align IT Software Spending
with Business Priorities
Tivoli’s Unique Capability
What software do I have? Auto-discovery of software assets
What software assets are in use? How is this different that what was purchased?
Use monitoring: measurement of software use activity trends
How much does each software asset cost now and in the near future?
Contract management: compare use activity to corresponding contracts

A Large Financial Organization
“Over nine years ago, the organization
set up a data repository containing
information on contractual obligations,
purchase dates, renewal dates and
maintenance agreements related to
mainframe software. We use a
repository to monitor compliance with
vendor contracts.”
SAM Success Stories
A Global Oil Producer
“In the first year (1991), we identified 76 products that were seldom or never used and could be eliminated. We saved
$1.25M in software license and maintenance costs.”
“We had a modeling product that cost $144,000 per year but was used by only one application to produce a weekly service station sales report. Converting that application to a PC spreadsheet eliminated the service station sales report.”
“We also identified products that were licensed on multiple CPUs, but were only required on one. Since 1991, we have been able to eliminate
approximately 200 licenses.”

SAM Success Stories
A Fortune 500 Manufacturer
To give some insight to how effective
the mainframe SAM product has been
for us, consider our experience:
–
“We started 1998 with 635 MIPS, 150 program products, and
software expenses that were a little over $7,000,000; the software
cost per MIP was around $11,000.”
–
“In 2002 we have ~ 1,100 MIPS, 65 program products, and software
expenses around $4,400,000. Today our software cost per MIP is
around $4,000.”

European Patent Office
The European Patent Office and IBM Global Services - Integrated Technology Services worked together to implement the Tivoli License Manager software.
The Tivoli License Manager software monitors usage of approximately 6,000 to 7,000 applications. The applications include Microsoft Internet Explorer, Adobe Acrobat, IBM Lotus Domino, Microsoft Visio and
Microsoft SQL server software.
With information obtained through the Tivoli License Manager software, EPO executives expect to reduce related software costs by being better positioned to negotiate new software contracts, plan for future software deployments and match resources with demand. The EPO believes that it will only need to achieve a few percentage points of savings to realize a full return on investment for the new Tivoli software solution.

SAM Success Stories
Tata Consultancy Services
The leading computing systems integrator company in India.
TCS faced challenges related to employees' compliance with corporate
software licensing policies, software distribution and asset management, and server monitoring and maintenance. To satisfy requirements for becoming listed on India's stock exchange, TCS had to ensure compliance with national standards related to controls for enterprise software licenses.
To manage employee behavior and gain better control over software and similar assets, the company established an enterprise system management program. Company goals were to collect complete asset inventory across the entire organization and comply with regulations related to licensing.

SAM Success Stories
Large AG Insurance Company
“Based on our knowledge of usage
through our mainframe SAM product we
are able to re-negotiate contracts with several of our largest vendors and maneuver the distribution of their products on our systems to become better aligned with our end users needs while also reducing costs.”
“Now we have enough information to drive LPAR pricing, and in the future vendors will have to step up to that requirement or face replacement. We are better able to negotiate software contracts from a position of strength and
make demands of vendors that we might otherwise back away from. When you have confidence in your resource allocations you are not as easily persuaded into wasteful agreements.”
