Develop an IT Asset Management Strategy
Define your business-aligned approach to ITAM.
Book This Workshop
IT asset management is a challenge for your organization:
- The data you have is often incomplete or wrong.
- Processes are broken or non-existent.
- Your tools aren’t up to the task of tracking ever more hardware, software, and relevant metadata.
- The role of stakeholders outside the core ITAM team isn’t well defined or understood.
Use our practical methodology and facilitator support to:
- Develop an approach and strategy for ITAM that is sustainable and aligned with your business priorities.
- Clarify the structure for the ITAM program, including scope, responsibility and accountability, centralization vs decentralization, outsourcing vs insourcing, and more.
- Create a practical roadmap to guide improvement.
