Sourcing help, when you actually need it.

Software sourcing advisory across the full range — the eight-figure renegotiation that decides the year, and the inherited contract nobody else wants to touch. Both deals matter. Both get the same attention.

01
Active deals

Run a deal

There's a transaction on the table — a new purchase, a competitive process, a contract heading to signature. The work is time-bound and the outcome is measurable.

→
A competitive bid needs to be run
RFP structure, vendor evaluation criteria, quote normalization, and scoring methodology that survives stakeholder scrutiny.
→
A deal needs a second set of eyes
Contract redline, commercial term review, negotiation position development — independent perspective before you sign.
→
A business case needs building
TCO modeling, alternative analysis, and approval support to get spend through finance, IT, and the executive team.
02
Portfolio

Optimize what you have

The deal already happened. Now the question is whether the agreement still fits — pricing, terms, scope, vendor count — and how to fix it on the next cycle.

→
A renewal is 6–18 months out
Position development, benchmarking, leverage strategy. Renewal outcomes are decided long before the quote arrives.
→
A master agreement needs renegotiation
Post-M&A integration, business model change, or terms that have drifted out of alignment with how you actually use the product.
→
Multiple contracts with the same vendor
Consolidation into a single optimized agreement — better commercial terms, cleaner administration, fewer renewal cycles to manage.
03
Foundation

Know what you own

Before optimization comes visibility. License entitlements, usage reality, and audit exposure are the foundation everything else builds on.

→
Nobody knows what software they own
Entitlement audit, audit defense, and license reconciliation — reconcile what you bought against what you're using before a vendor does it for you.

Not sure which one fits?

Most engagements start with a 30-minute conversation about the deal, the deadline, and the constraint. No pitch, no proposal — just whether I can help.
