The information technology advancements we have seen over time are incredible, but they also cause headaches for our IT professionals every day. Questions like:
How do we efficiently keep track of all technology assets?
There is a lot of inventory to account for, especially in larger sized companies. Dependent on your employee count, the number of locations you have, and how many devices are at the office or in the hands of your employees.
It’s amazing what can be discovered when an audit is performed. One of our clients came to us searching for a comprehensive wireless audit, to better manage inventory and optimize wireless usage.
After discovery and execution of this audit, our client obtained savings of $690,00, annually. No too shabby!
How can we reduce our budgets to better allocate our time and money?
We all know, time is money. When a company’s IT professionals are doing mundane tasks like tracking technology inventory in excel, they are wasting precious time that could be spent on more important tasks.
Other than time savings, implementing software into your technology inventory strategy saves, an average, 30% on your overall telecom spend. Not sure what that looks like? Use our TEM Calculator to find out!
