What we manage

The whole portfolio. Not just the big renewals.

Vendor management that pays for itself: the contracts known, the calendar owned, every price checked against the market and the gaps negotiated.

Contract baseline

Every agreement loaded into Vera AI: terms, renewal dates, spend and owners, searchable in seconds.

Renewal calendar

Every notice window and renewal date tracked, with preparation starting two quarters ahead.

Benchmarking

Every quote and renewal priced against executed agreements of your size, line by line.

Negotiation

Redress negotiators on the renewals and purchases where the gap is material.

Consolidation

Overlapping tools and duplicate contracts found and folded into fewer, better priced agreements.

Reporting

Quarterly reviews of where the portfolio stands against the market, and the savings delivered.

How it runs

Load. Benchmark. Negotiate where it pays.

A program, not a project: the portfolio stays benchmarked between renewals.

Redress negotiators

Negotiate

The material renewals run to signature at a fixed fee or 25 percent of the saving.

The calendar

Most overspend happens between negotiations.

Auto renewals nobody owned, price increases accepted between reviews, small renewals never benchmarked. A managed calendar closes those gaps and starts every material negotiation two quarters early.

Questions buyers ask

IT vendor management, answered.

What is IT vendor management consulting?

Managing your software, cloud and AI vendors as one program: the contracts known, the renewal calendar owned, every price benchmarked and the material renewals negotiated. We run it with Vera AI and our own negotiators.

How is it different from a procurement outsourcer?

We are negotiators, not a buying desk. We never resell, never take vendor money, and our fees follow the savings, so every recommendation is about paying less.

Which vendors does it cover?

All of them: the major publishers, the hyperscalers, the AI vendors and the long tail. 1,500 plus vendors are in the Vera AI library.

How is it priced?

A program fee quoted on your portfolio, with negotiations inside it at a fixed fee or 25 percent of what we save you. No saving, no fee.

How fast does it start?

The portfolio is typically loaded and benchmarked within the first two weeks, and the first renewals are triaged straight away.

Are you independent of the vendors?

Yes. 100 percent buyer side: zero vendor affiliations, no reseller agreements and no referral fees.

Know where every vendor stands. Negotiate the ones that matter.

Send us your vendor list and renewal dates. We will show you where the portfolio sits against the market.

Vendor pricing news, once a month.

Price moves, discount benchmarks and what worked in recent negotiations. No vendor spin.
