Webinar, June 5, 2025, 2:00-2:30 PM (ET)

As IT budgets tighten, procurement leaders are turning to application rationalization not just to cut costs – but to gain leverage. By identifying redundancies and overlaps across the tech stack, organizations can reclaim control in vendor negotiations and drive meaningful concessions, even without full consolidation.

In this session, we’ll explore how procurement teams can use rationalization as a strategic tool to elevate their negotiation playbook. You’ll learn:

• Key areas where application rationalization delivers value 
• How to identify overlapping and redundant software to spark more strategic vendor conversations
• How to use rationalization insights to drive competitive deal outcomes, sharpen vendor strategies, and negotiate from a position of knowledge
