An Information Technology department essentially needs to 'manage' software and applications, their deployment, maintenance and ultimately, the disposal throughout the life-cycle to reduce IT costs, mitigate legal risks and in turn maximizing the IT infrastructures' productivity. What is also extremely important is that the organization needs to steer clear of legal and license related risks; not only to save on the monstrous costs that would arise in case of legal issues, but also to avoid putting the reputation of the business in serious jeopardy.
