IT Cost Optimization

Sustainable Cost Reduction with Simultaneous Performance Improvement

IT costs represent a significant portion of the corporate budget and often offer considerable optimization potential. My IT cost optimization service helps you holistically analyze and sustainably reduce your IT expenses without compromising performance or security.

  • Non-transparent cost structures: Unclear allocation and distribution of IT costs
  • Inefficient resource utilization: Oversized or unused IT resources
  • Fragmented IT landscape: Redundant systems and applications
  • Lack of cost control: Inadequate processes for IT cost management
  • Short-term savings: Focus on quick cost reduction instead of sustainable optimization

  3. Potential identification: Determination of savings opportunities in all IT areas
  4. Optimization planning: Development of a prioritized roadmap for cost reduction
  5. Implementation support: Assistance in implementing the measures

Case Study

For a medium-sized manufacturing company, I was able to reduce annual IT expenses by 24% through a holistic IT cost optimization. By consolidating systems, renegotiating service contracts, and optimizing the license structure, not only were costs reduced, but IT performance and user-friendliness were also improved.
