When It Makes Sense, and When It Does Not

When it makes sense

  • Technology spend is rising and nobody can say clearly what it delivers.
  • Business units buy technology that IT does not know about. 58% have encountered issues due to unsanctioned SaaS usage.Flexera 2026 IT Priorities
  • Visibility is incomplete. 85% of IT leaders say gaps in IT visibility pose a risk to their organization.Flexera 2026 IT Priorities
  • Your board needs a clear account of technology and supplier risk. Public companies must describe how they assess and manage material cybersecurity risk, and how the board oversees it, in their annual reports.

When it does not

  • Your estate is small and stable, with few critical suppliers. The frameworks are meant to be right-sized, and a lighter program may be all you need.

We will tell you how much governance you need, and where less is enough.

Four Stages. One Team Throughout

See how we work
  1. Supplier identification

    We find the suppliers that fit where the business is going, starting from the agreements you already have and the gaps in them.

  2. Buying cycle

    We turn the strategy into requirements suppliers can bid on, run the evaluation and negotiate the terms with your legal team.

  3. Implementation oversight and accountability

    We hold the supplier to what it committed to through go-live, and check that what gets delivered matches the strategy behind the purchase.

  4. Client and supplier lifecycle management

    We keep your roadmap, policies and agreements current as the business changes, and start each renewal early.
