SAM Consultant for Enterprise Partner Group (EPG)
Strategic Software Asset Management for Complex Enterprise Environments
As a SAM Consultant to Microsoft’s Enterprise Partner Group (EPG) clients, I serve as a trusted advisor to large enterprises seeking to strategically optimize licensing across global, hybrid, and multi-domain environments.
I bring over 50 completed projects and over $10 million in client cost savings by enabling CIO, and procurement teams to harmonize licensing strategy with business transformation—be it digital migration, virtualization expansion, or EA negotiation.
EPG-Specific Differentiators:
Enterprise-Grade Compliance Intelligence: I dissect complex deployments across Microsoft Server, Exchange, O365, Azure Hybrid, and M365 stacks.
EA/EAS Negotiation Support: I empower procurement teams with actionable licensing intelligence and renewal forecasting.
Core-to-CAL Entitlement Modeling: I build licensing models that optimize cost while ensuring future scalability.
Tool-Agnostic Expertise: I work independently of SAM tools and resellers—my analysis is objective, neutral, and data-driven.
Enterprise-Scale Services:
Full license reconciliation across global domains
Licensing alignment for hybrid datacenter/cloud infrastructure
Optimization of Datacenter vs. Standard Server deployments
EA renewal preparation and ROI maximization
At the enterprise level, SAM is not just a function—it’s a strategy. I help EPG clients turn licensing complexity into competitive advantage and board-level clarity.
