Create Savings. Increase Efficiencies.
TAG has recently added the capability to reduce IT hardware and software cost to our base suite of telecom cost reduction services. This service is provided through a proven group of IT specialists, offers a potential 25% savings to TAG clients and is a very nice complement to our existing procurement services.
Here are the challenges many IT organizations face:
- Managing total IT spend in large or changing organizations
- Managing “Asset Renewals” proactively
- Suppliers mitigating your negotiation leverage. Suppliers:
- Prefer transactional relationships (to perpetuate smaller discounts)
- Utilize your need for speed-to-market to their advantage
- Work to segregate the IT spend within your company
To reduce IT spend, TAG:
- Uses proven IT cost reduction methods based on strategic sourcing methodologies
- Can start broadly:
- Review your entire IT environment / procurement initiatives
- Present you with sourcing strategies & recommendations for 2 to 4 sourcing projects as options to execute
- Execute the project you choose, keeping you informed every step of the way
-
Or focus narrowly:
- Perhaps there's a major OEM hardware maintenance contract coming up for renewal in 90 days
- Perhaps you have grown through M&A activity and are looking to consolidate and/or phase out a specific supplier
- Perhaps you have chosen to standardize on two specific software vendors and are looking to maximize your discount
Projects are delivered by experienced, trusted advisors who get results
- Advisors have managed total IT spend of $430+ million
- Average hard-dollar savings over the last 140 projects has been 25%
- Time savings, via streamlined processes, are a natural by-product of most projects
