New Year's Housekeeping – The Enterprise Playbook for Renewals, Rights, and Cost Control

from Staying Connected

Enterprise IT and procurement teams start the year with big priorities; however without disciplined contract management and a clear view of services and spend, those good intentions may be lost as costs and risk can creep in, weakening your leverage. In this 11-minute episode of Staying Connected, Laura McDonald of LB3 joins Tony Mangino to walk through a practical New Year's "housekeeping" checklist to spotlight the steps teams should take to avoid missed credits, address chronic  service issues, build leverage, and tighten vendor governance so that the big priorities can be met without unnecessary friction.
