Hardware and software auditing services
Gain a complete understanding of your IT assets, with the help
of experienced auditors.
Undertaking a hardware and software audit is an important step
in establishing your legal and effective use of software. Only by
knowing exactly what you have in place can you begin to manage your
IT assets effectively.
FAST consultants provide fully managed audit services,
from a pilot audit through to full enterprise-wide implementations.
The services include the compilation of
new asset registers or the updating of existing registers that
may not have been maintained. FAST will ensure you
stay in control as assets are added, amended or
retired over time.
For us, the biggest benefit of the FAST
Compliance Programme is having total visibility of what hardware
and software we have in our IT estate, understanding what software
we have actually installed, and increasing our awareness of
licensing implications so that we understand any business
risks.
