Industry: Manufacturing
A customer initially engaged Appstrato for a 3-month engagement to support their internal Software Asset Management (SAM) function. Unbeknownst to us at the time, they were also undergoing a surprise IBM audit—a high-risk situation with potential financial impact.
Leveraging our audit defense expertise, we rapidly engaged in vendor negotiations, challenged assumptions, and guided the customer through complex licensing discussions. Through strategic pushback and evidence gathering, we helped them prove compliance, resulting in zero financial exposure to IBM.
Outcome: A stress-free IBM audit with zero compliance risk, reinforcing the importance of expert-led SAM support.
