SAM Brings Volume Discount, Helps Medial Center Promote Regulation Compliance
Overview Based in Redmond, Washington, Software Management Systems Inc. (SMS Inc.) helps businesses implement software management policies and comply with license agreements. In mid-2005, a large medical center conducted a routine check to make sure its IT systems were complying with medical regulations. Results revealed inconsistencies between software and licenses, and because the licenses were complex, the center contacted SMS Inc. for recommendations in managing them more effectively. SMS Inc. worked with the center to implement a customized program of Software Asset Management (SAM). The program promotes best practices that help the center comply both with software licenses and with unrelated medical regulations. It simplifies IT administration through efficient software distribution, tracking, and reporting. And it saves money by identifying a 20 percent volume-discount opportunity.
