Introduction
Proven Strategies to Navigate IBM Licensing Risk — and Save Millions
At Redress Compliance, we help global enterprises take control of their IBM licensing landscape. Whether it’s understanding subcapacity compliance, resolving mainframe licensing risk, preparing for an audit, or identifying savings in legacy contracts, we deliver clarity, leverage, and savings — all without vendor bias.
We’re not IBM resellers. We don’t sell licenses. We’re 100% independent, which means our sole objective is to help you uncover waste, stay compliant, and eliminate unnecessary spending.
Our IBM Licensing Assessment Case Studies reveal how CIOs and procurement leaders have:
- Avoided multi-million dollar audit penalties through proactive ILMT remediation
- Reclaimed budget by identifying shelfware and over-licensed environments
- Shifted from a position of strength during audit negotiations
- Reduced IBM’s cost footprint by exiting unnecessary bundling
- Future-proofed IBM strategies with hybrid cloud-ready licensing models
