About
Open IT are a consultancy specialising in helping you reduce your costs. We do not sell any external products or services, we simply offer our time.
Most businesses utilise technology in some way, however they unintentionally overspend and do not always have the time nor resources necessary to identify when and where it is occurring. You receive your usual annual renewals and you accept the lowest price having asked three resellers for a quote- sound familiar? There is often a ‘feeling’ the business is overspending, or not getting good value, but how do you know for sure and subsequently turn that into cost savings?
We have decades of IT experience, both within procurement and implementations, and can rapidly identify where IT environments or solutions have not been ‘right-sized’ according to the business’ requirements. Often, suppliers will gladly sell you what you ask for and therefore the following scenarios likely sound familiar;
- The business have cloud solutions which technically you do not understand and are very costly
- The business is paying for more software licences/subscriptions than required, and potentially the wrong type
- The business have high telecoms costs (fibre, mobiles, landlines, phone system etc)
- There are many systems, applications, tools, services, portals etc the business are paying for but you are unsure what they are and why you require them all
- IT spend is increasing annually with little visibility into why, other than RPI inflation
- There is a lack of ownership and control around IT costs, budget and whether the business would benefit from a lease or opex model over capex.
If the above examples ring true within your business, we will certainly be able to help you gain clarity and reduce costs.
