Maintain a centralized, accurate, and real-time inventory of all software assets—including licenses, entitlements, SaaS and IaaS subscriptions—across IT managed assets. Lead regular software audits and internal reviews to validate compliance with licensing agreements, regulatory standards, and vendor terms, minimizing legal and financial exposure. Collaborate cross-functionally with Procurement, Corporate Applications, End User Computing & Operations, Legal, and Finance to manage software supply chain processes, contribute requirements to negotiation discussions, and ensure effective software sourcing and renewals. Analyze license usage, entitlement data, and financial performance to identify underutilized assets, improve license re-harvesting, and recommend cost-saving opportunities. Support team members while promoting SAM maturity through scalable governance frameworks, continuous improvement initiatives, and alignment with industry standard service management disciplines.
