Asset portfolio rationalisation

Reducing redundancy, optimising value, and streamlining IT assets across your organisation. 

Optimising your IT asset portfolio is essential for reducing waste, cutting costs, and increasing operational efficiency. We help your organisation identify under-utilised or redundant hardware and software, consolidate suppliers, and align their technology stack with real business needs. 

This approach improves procurement outcomes by reducing licensing overheads, extending device life cycles, supporting smarter investment decisions, and helping reduce emissions by removing unutilised devices and improving overall energy efficiency.

What is a procurement strategy and why is it important for IT?

A procurement strategy is a structured plan that guides how a business sources, evaluates, and purchases products or services to meet its goals. A strong procurement strategy helps align your technology investments with long-term business outcomes. It ensures cost-efficiency, reduces supply chain risk, supports compliance, and enables scalability.

What are the four main processes of project procurement management?

The four main processes of project procurement management are:

  1. Plan Procurement Management: where you define what to buy and how 
  2. Conduct Procurements: where you request, evaluate, and select vendors
  3. Control Procurements: where you manage supplier performance and contract compliance
  4. Close Procurements: where contracts are finalised and deliverables are formally accepted. 

These steps help ensure a cost-effective, and strategic procurement process across your project lifecycle.

How can businesses improve their procurement process for IT products and services?

Improving your procurement process starts with identifying inefficiencies in how technology is sourced, purchased, and managed. Streamlining vendor relationships, adopting a reliable procurement system, and leveraging data for better decision-making can all contribute to stronger outcomes.

Working with a procurement specialist like Datacom allows you to optimise cost, reduce risk, and access premium technology and support through a consultative, commercial approach tailored to your business needs.
