Results Across All Major Vendors

Our breadth of vendor coverage means we bring genuine comparative intelligence to every engagement. We know how Oracle's tactics differ from SAP's, how Microsoft's quarter-end differs from Salesforce's. That knowledge is leverage.

Outcome Categories

We Don't Just Negotiate Price

Price is only one dimension of a software contract. Our advisors are expert negotiators across the full spectrum of commercial and contractual terms — and often the biggest wins come from places clients didn't know to look.

Outcome 1

Price Reduction

Lowering the headline price, unit cost, or annual fee through benchmarking, competitive alternatives, and volume leverage. Average reduction: 28% on first-pass proposals.

Outcome 2

Audit Settlement

Challenging audit methodology, disputing deployment assumptions, and negotiating settlements significantly below vendor-cited exposure. Average reduction: 78% of opening claim.

Outcome 3

Contract Term Improvement

Securing improved termination rights, audit frequency limits, price escalation caps, and data portability provisions that protect you beyond the initial term.

Outcome 4

Licence Rationalisation

Identifying unused or over-deployed licences, restructuring entitlements, and right-sizing agreements to what you actually use. Average reduction: 22% of seat count.

Outcome 5

Support Optimisation

Reducing or restructuring support spend through third-party alternatives, support downgrade rights, and term alignment. Average support saving: 35–55% annually.

Outcome 6

Strategic Leverage

Developing competitive alternatives, cloud migration options, and vendor diversification strategies that create long-term negotiating leverage far beyond a single renewal cycle.

Client Feedback

What Our Clients Say

"We engaged IT Negotiations six weeks before our Oracle renewal deadline. They identified $12M in overpayment risk we didn't know existed and negotiated a settlement that saved us $9.4M. Worth every penny of the advisory fee."

VP IT PROCUREMENT · GLOBAL MANUFACTURING

"The SAP indirect access exposure was keeping our CFO awake at night. IT Negotiations settled it for a fraction of SAP's opening position and restructured our licensing to prevent it happening again. Outstanding expertise."

CIO · FTSE 250 RETAILER

"We had been over-paying on Microsoft for years. The benchmark report alone was eye-opening. The renegotiation saved us $6.1M over three years and we got terms we didn't even know were negotiable."
