When we help

Three moments we step in

Scenario 01
Renewal on the desk
The Salesforce renewal proposal is in. The multi cloud SELA is up. Edition mix, discount profile, and uplift caps are all in play before signature.
Scenario 02
Agentforce expansion offer
Salesforce has tabled an Agentforce, Data Cloud, or Data 360 expansion. Pilot to production pricing is the next move. We anchor the consumption metric first.
Scenario 03
RFP or competitive bid
A new Salesforce program is going to market. We frame the RFP, qualify the rivals, and use the competitive picture as commercial leverage at the table.
How we help

Four phase buyer side procedure

Phase 01
Scope and baseline
Engagement scope, renewal posture, and an independent buyer side license position baseline. Utilization and role data pulled before any data crosses to Salesforce.
Phase 02
Deployment review
Edition mix and seat utilization reviewed against the baseline. Multi cloud bundle taken apart. Inactive and under utilized seats flagged for renewal action.
Phase 03
Negotiation
Negotiation sequenced across renewal, Agentforce framing, and any expansion request. Discount benchmarks anchored. Executive sponsorship briefed.
Phase 04
Close and side letter
Side letter signed. Swap rights, uplift caps, and edition flex locked in. Renewal governance handed back to the procurement and SAM functions.

Vendor Shield detail →
Salesforce told us the multi cloud SELA was non negotiable and the renewal uplift was capped. Redress took the bundle apart in front of them and re priced every cloud at the standalone book. The renewal landed forty one percent below the proposal.
