Licence Audit · Derry
Licence Audit in Derry
A licence audit for Derry organisations, answering two questions at once — what would you owe if a vendor audited you next month, and how much are you paying for software nobody opens. Most estates carry both problems simultaneously, because neither is anybody's job to check.
Why this comes up
The problem
Nobody knows whether the estate is over-licensed or under-licensed, and both would be expensive to discover from a vendor.
What you get
What we deliver
- Entitlements gathered from agreements and portals into one comparable position
- Actual deployment and usage measured against what has been purchased
- Under-licensing quantified, with the exposure if a vendor initiated a review
- Unused and duplicated subscriptions identified across departments
- Metric rules checked, since per-user, per-device and per-core count differently
- Renewal dates consolidated so negotiations happen with time rather than urgency

Licence Audit in Derry — common questions
- How does under-licensing happen accidentally?
- Through ordinary growth and virtualisation. Staff numbers rise, a server is moved to a host with more cores, a test environment is spun up from a production image — each reasonable in isolation, and collectively enough to put an organisation materially out of compliance without a decision ever being made.
- What does a vendor review involve?
- A formal request to demonstrate entitlement, usually within a defined window. Organisations that cannot produce a clear position negotiate from a weak one, and the settlement is typically back-dated licences at list price rather than the discount they would ordinarily receive.
- How much shelfware is normal?
- More than most finance teams expect. Licences assigned to leavers, tools bought for a project that ended, and duplicate products from separate departments commonly account for a noticeable share of software spend — and reclaiming them is the fastest saving in this work.
- Why consolidate renewal dates?
- Because timing determines leverage. A renewal reached with three weeks remaining and no alternative assessed is a price increase waiting to happen, whereas a known calendar allows the market to be tested and several agreements to be negotiated as one conversation.
- Do you work with businesses across County Londonderry?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Northern Ireland, including Derry and the surrounding County Londonderry area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Derry businesses do you usually work with?
- Cross-border trading systems for businesses working into Donegal, and manufacturing tooling for the north west. Beyond that we work across Manufacturing, Healthcare, Higher Education, Digital and Tourism.
- Do you cover the areas around Derry?
- Yes — we work throughout Northern Ireland, including Belfast, Lisburn. Derry is an urban area of roughly 85,000+, and we take on work across the wider County Londonderry region rather than the city boundary alone.
