An expired license nobody renewed, a compliance audit that turns up more installs than seats purchased, a renewal invoice that’s grown without anyone noticing why – software licensing quietly becomes expensive and risky when nobody owns it end-to-end. OTS manages business software licensing across every major publisher, so the right licenses are in place, renewals don’t lapse, and spend stays visible and under control.

Most businesses run software licensing as a series of one-off purchases – a subscription bought when a team needed it, a perpetual license renewed whenever someone remembered, a compliance question nobody could answer with confidence. That approach works until an audit, a renewal spike, or a security gap makes the cost of not managing it visible.
OTS manages software licensing as a structured, ongoing function – procurement, renewals, compliance tracking and cost optimisation handled by one accountable team, across the publishers your business actually depends on. It’s licensing built around visibility and control, not scattered purchase orders.
Structured licensing management across the publishers and license models businesses depend on.
Licensing structured for organisations purchasing at scale, with terms negotiated for the volume involved.
Subscription-based licenses managed and renewed on schedule, across the applications your teams use daily.
One-time license purchases tracked and managed for organisations that prefer to own rather than subscribe.
Licensing for cloud-hosted and SaaS applications, aligned with how those platforms are actually consumed.
Ongoing visibility into what's licensed, what's deployed, and where the two don't match.
Entitlements tracked against deployment, so compliance gaps are caught before an audit finds them.
Renewal dates tracked and actioned ahead of expiry, so access to business-critical software is never disrupted.
Spend reviewed against actual usage to identify unused seats, redundant tools and consolidation opportunities.
A structured six-stage process runs behind every licensing engagement, from a single renewal to a full organisation-wide audit.
Review current licenses, entitlements and actual deployment to establish where the business stands today.
Understand which applications, seat counts and licensing models the business actually needs.
Recommend the right mix of volume, subscription, perpetual or cloud licensing, sourced through the right OEM.
Purchase and deploy licenses correctly, with entitlements documented from day one.
Track entitlements against deployment and renewal dates on an ongoing basis, not just at audit time.
Review usage periodically and adjust licensing to match how the business is actually using it.

paying for seats nobody uses, or running installs that exceed what’s actually licensed
subscriptions lapsing unnoticed, disrupting access to business-critical applications
limited visibility into license entitlements versus actual deployment, ahead of a vendor audit
licenses bought piecemeal across teams, with no consolidated view of spend or terms
perpetual, subscription or volume licensing selected without matching it to actual usage patterns
different renewal cycles, portals and terms across Microsoft, Adobe, Autodesk and other vendors
Credibility built on delivery, not claims.
Entitlements and deployment tracked continuously, so a vendor audit is never a scramble.
Unused seats and redundant tools identified and eliminated before renewal.
Renewal dates tracked and actioned ahead of time, so access to critical software is never disrupted.
One clear view of licensing spend and terms across every publisher, instead of scattered purchase records.
Licensing matched to actual usage patterns, not bought reactively or oversized by default.
License tracking and renewal management handled by OTS, freeing internal teams from manual oversight.

SAM is the ongoing practice of tracking what’s licensed against what’s actually deployed. It matters for any organisation that wants to avoid compliance risk and stop paying for licenses it isn’t using.
Yes. A licensing audit compares current entitlements against actual deployment, surfacing compliance gaps and over- or under-licensing before they become a vendor audit finding.
Yes. Renewal dates are tracked and actioned ahead of expiry as part of ongoing licensing management, so access to business-critical software isn’t interrupted.
Yes. Usage is reviewed against current licensing to identify unused seats, redundant applications and opportunities to consolidate or right-size the licensing model.
