§A · TOOLS · VENDOR SPRAWL

Fourteen tools.
How many needed?

Every tool made sense when it was bought. Together they leak — unused seats, duplicated features, admin time. Count the leak before deciding what to do about it.

§01 · THE MODEL

Count what you actually pay for.

Assumptions
Indicative result

—

Stack, yearly——
Waste, yearly—ghost seats + overlap + admin
Waste share—of total spend

Where the waste sits

Consolidation is not the goal — connection is. Half the overlap exists because tool A can't see tool B's data, so someone bought tool C. Wire the stack together first and the redundant licences fall out on their own.

Get the map before the cull.

Send the scenario and we'll tell you which overlaps are genuine waste and which exist because two systems can't talk — those need wiring, not cancelling. Your numbers are attached automatically — nothing to retype.

We use this scenario and your contact details to respond. Privacy information.
