I would expect to uncover savings by economies of scale. Instead of individuals buying one license, we could group the purchases across the organization and purchase at a group rate or enterprise level. Getting auto renewals or late payments under control will help with waste. Holding vendors accountable to agreements will also increase savings and eliminate waste.
To gain control and complete visibility of what we have, what we want, how we plan to get what we want, gain organizational buy in and compliance.
Everyone who uses technology in any form is a customer. I cannot think of any department that would not be a customer.
Yes, I would keep these. I would make sure that the policies are updated and relevant, but otherwise these 3 areas build the foundation for a successful program.
I meet with subject experts in my company and also with some vendors. Conferences are also now an option as well as going IAITAM
We would do well on most. We would score lower on procuring assets because of non-adherence to purchasing products. We do well on what is brought in through the proper channels, but have no way of controlling what is rouge purchasing outside of the policy.
I will teach and train within my organization. I will contribute to our program. I will network outside of our organization to keep up with new advances and to always keep learning. I will share my knowledge to try to help others.
We have a lot of processes in place but our goal is to get all the business lines to adhere to the processes and have a central SME to lead us. We will formalize and update based on IAITAM’s teachings
We have internal audits on a regular basis. Rarely there have been compliance audits and it is very labor intensive to make sure all documentation is available.
Asset tags are assigned to equipment and tracked through our company’s asset management software. Our IT support group runs the asset tag program.
I have a high level understanding overall, with deeper knowledge of my own department and key departments I partner with.
