On 13 December, we organised the Software Asset Management (SAM) theme session. This time we were guests of Royal Boskalis in Papendrecht. The reason for the SAM theme session was the outcome of our supplier satisfaction survey, in which we found that many of our members are not satisfied with the licensing and contract models used by software and hardware suppliers. We experience a lot of rigidity in contracts and little transparency in licensing models, often leading to compliancy issues that need to be resolved between the supply and demand sides in the market.

This combined expert group brings together architects, business analysts and portfolio managers to exchange knowledge, experiences and best practices at the intersection of business and IT. Participants share practical insights on stakeholder management, business alignment, benefits management, prioritisation, decision-making, agile ways of working, and the transition from project-based to product-oriented operating models. Topics such as architecture, modelling, visualisation, tooling and strategic portfolio management are also explored. The central challenge: how can we create greater agility, alignment and value for the organisation together? Share your experiences and learn from your peers!
