Managing your IT assets

You have millions of dollars invested in your IT assets. Our consultants can help you make sure that those assets are used to their greatest effect, potentially saving you millions of dollars on software costs, hardware expenditure and environmental running costs.

Aperture Data Center Management Tools

Do you have an Aperture-based data center documentation system in place? Are your records up to date or do you need to create a new inventory? Have the people who set up your asset management system initially now moved on so that you need to train new people how to use it? Do you need to upgrade to a more recent version of the Aperture software?

We can help you with the detail of all of these jobs from discovering the location and connections to your equipment through to training your people on how to use your system. The only thing we can't do is to sell you the software - you will need to get that from Aperture Technologies.

Aperture to AutoCAD or AutoCAD to Aperture

If you want to move drawings and data from Aperture to AutoCAD or from AutoCAD to Aperture, we can help. We know what needs to be done to get sensible, properly scaled drawings and how to extract data from the most complicated databases.

Software assets

We can help you save tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars a year on your software costs:-

  • For all your software licenses
    • Build you a complete inventory of your software licenses
    • Identify licenses that contain unacceptable conditions
    • Identify licenses that are inadequately specific about events that could lead to unexpected heavy expense
    • Suggest ways of combining, renegotiating, removing or replacing software licenses that will save you money while retaining your high service levels
  • For SAS in particular
    • Determine which modules you have installed and licensed where
    • Discover exactly which modules are being used in which LPAR and how much
    • Advise on how your SAS licenses could be restructured to give you optimum use of the product at the least expense
