Problem
The organization had accumulated software over time. Multiple subscriptions overlapped in function. Ownership was unclear. Bundling opportunities were missed. Costs were rising without corresponding improvements in efficiency.
Solution
I conducted a structured audit of active tools, billing cycles, user counts, and functional overlap. For each tool, I evaluated necessity, redundancy, and bundling potential. Recommendations focused on consolidation, clearer ownership, and reducing cognitive load by minimizing the number of systems in use. Implementation support ensured the changes were actually adopted rather than documented and ignored.
Outcomes
- Reduced tool sprawl and overlapping subscriptions
- Improved clarity around ownership and billing responsibility
- Simplified operational stack for staff
