SUBJECT: MICROSOFT SOFTWARE ASSET MANAGEMENT REVIEW – DKN
INTERNATIONAL
Microsoft would like to work with your company on a review of your
Microsoft Licenses and take this opportunity to help you control your
software assets.
1. We ask you to complete the attached questionnaire (spread sheet
format) and return to Microsoft via email.
2. Once we receive your organization’s questionnaire, we will analyze
the Microsoft software in use against the license held and provide you
with an Estimated License ownership Position. There may be areas that
require further clarification.
3. When further clarification is complete, a finalized license
ownership position (as of the date of review) will be provided. This
will detail what your organization owns and what we understand your
organization is using, based on the information you have supplied.
4. Along with the final License Ownership Position summary you will
also receive a Software Asset Management Tips guide and a closure letter
post SAM engagement.
In order to make the process as efficient as possible we would
highlight the following:
1. You may wish to engage your IT Partner to assist you through, or
even manage the process on your behalf. However, engaging your IT
Partner is not compulsory as we are more than happy to assist you
directly via our telephone engagements.
2. We recommend that you request from your IT Partner(s) a list of
Microsoft licenses you have purchased via OEM (pre -installed with
hardware) or FPP (boxed retail copies). The purpose of this is to ensure
that we are evaluating your total license ownership position. Please
note that record of licenses purchased under a volume License Program
(such as Open, Select or Enterprise) will be already available in the
Microsoft records system.
3. Microsoft makes available a “free downloadable” software product
to assist with the inventory: MAP (Microsoft Assessment and Planning
Toolkit). This is a powerful inventory, assessment and reporting tool
that can securely assess IT environments for various platform migrations
and virtualization without the use of any software agents for up to
100,000 PCs. It is available at www.microsoft.com/map [1];
4. If you have purchased volume License under a different company name
or have acquired other organizations that may have purchased licenses,
please try to have this information available. This will enable us to
identify any licenses you own which have been purchased under
alternative names.
The documents attached to this email include:
· A questionnaire that we would appreciate your response within 7
days. If, for any reason, you are unable to meet this timeframe please
contact us by return email to develop a mutually agreed upon
alternative.
The value of this engagement for your organization includes:
· Consolidation of all your licensing records into one concise report
which can then be maintained and modified by your organization in the
future
· Assistance with understanding licensing rules, and, in particular,
how they relate to your own specific situation
· Licensing expertise and advice available to you throughout the
process, free of charge
· Guidance regarding on-going Software Asset Management to eliminate
waste and redundancy and mitigate risks of non-compliance
Please feel free to ask questions if you are not sure about the
information you are being asked to provide, or if you have queries in
regard to the Microsoft Software Asset Management Review. Alternatively,
should you wish to discuss this directly with Microsoft please email us
at [email protected].
Thank you for your assistance, we look forward for an early and
positive response from your side.
BEST REGARDS
