According to the company, implementing ManageSoft's Enterprise Compliance Manager (ECM) has allowed Rentokil Initial to combine asset inventory, software usage, contract terms, purchase order data and licence compliance management.
The solution reports licence breaches, under/over licence situations, unmanaged/unauthorised software, and software usage per application, per location or across the enterprise. In addition, the optimisation unit reports potential cost savings considering purchase terms, pending maintenance renewals, software allocation and licence types used.
Having implemented ManageSoft's Software Asset Management tool, the company found it was significantly over-licensed, and has introduced a freeze on licence purchasing in the UK until the oversubscription has been consumed, Rentokil Initial said.
No financial details were disclosed.
