Recession-fuelled technology tip: ‘Zero-waste'
Zero waste is our campaign headline.
When I started in the industry, [the late Northamber founder] David Philips said to me in the late 80s, early 90s sometime, that directors will cancel their new PC before they cancel their new company car.
We are a long way from that today. Zero waste is about ensuring that you have control of your FinOps: everything from licensing and consumption spend to physical device management, support and lifecycle costs. We saw in the pandemic companies accelerate their move to outsourced and contracted services as they sought to reduce headcount, preserve cash and focus their IT teams on true digital transformation. Our focus on what I call "plumbing and engineering" takes care of the platform and tooling our customers' businesses operates on so they can focus on their business.
