WHAT WE DO

We support the IT and the procurement department already in the frame of license purchases. On the basis of a contractual analysis, we define possibilities of optimization and suggest concrete actions to improve the legal position. Moreover, we support our Clients in negotiations with the vendor, also in the frame of upcoming audits or additional claims.

Our Services

TECHNICAL MEASUREMENT

We check the vendor’s audit results. Such results are often not accurate and penalize the customers. We work with partners who have their own audit tools and are able to measure real and effective software use, prior to or after an audit. Our legal job is then to verify if the respective definition of roles and classifications is in accordance with the applicable contractual framework.

LEGAL COMPLIANCE CHECK

 We analyze your license agreements in the frame of applicable standard terms (GTC, price lists, PUR, ULA etc.) and identify your legal options. In Germany, such legal recommendations may only be given by lawyers (and to a limited extent by tax consultants and certified accountants).

NEGOTIATION SUPPORT

We negotiate software contracts with the vendor or accompany such negotiations from the background. The exact formulation of key contract clauses often matters a lot for the long-term success and the ability to save money.

INTERNATIONAL

Software licenses are often used globally within the Group. It is important that your contracts correctly reflect international usage.

VISION

We value your business partnership with the vendor and work with you in order to achieve a mutual understanding and solution. You shall take the benefit, and your partnership with the vendor shall remain friendly.

SUSTAINABILITY

Success matters. While short-terms achievements can also be achieved by a purely commercial optimization activity, the legal approach fosters sustainability and facilitates your long-term success.
