Vendor Negotiations

Our total cost of ownership analysis shows that recurring vendor license fees are a significant or even the majority of recurring “operate and maintain” or “O&M” (aka “Opex”) costs. In this industry, vendor pricing data is highly secretive, and this information asymmetry results in customers executing license contracts with wildly different price points for the same thing. When contracting enterprise software licenses, you get what you negotiate. This is where Essentia excels.

With firsthand experience gained from 100’s of negotiations, our expertise helps our customers establish the optimal, lowest total cost of ownership possible, and in this way, optimizing future Opex.
