Look inside an Optimisation & Licensing Assessment summary and sample report pack now. See anonymised example outputs including estate inventory, licensing optimisation insight, cost scenarios, savings opportunities, dependency mapping, and migration wave planning, presented in a leadership-ready format for IT, Finance and Procurement.

This OLA assessment report sample shows what “good” looks like when you need clarity across infrastructure, licensing, and optimisation. Use it to benchmark your approach to renewal decision-making, cost-reduction planning, and risk-aware sequencing.

What you’ll get in the pack

This download includes a curated set of sample outputs (summary views and report extracts) from an Optimisation & Licensing Assessment, designed to help stakeholders make confident decisions around optimisation, licensing and change planning.

Inside you’ll see examples of:

• A structured estate inventory (in-scope servers and workloads captured in a usable, filterable format)
• Scenario views that compare different paths forward (not a single recommendation)
• Cost comparisons (current baseline vs right-sized options) and directional TCO deltas
• Savings and optimisation opportunities you can translate into an internal business case
• Dependency mapping and wave grouping to reduce the risk of partial moves, broken integrations and rework

Why Perform Partners’ outputs are different

Anyone can produce a spreadsheet. What leaders need is a decision pack:

• A single, agreed view of “what we’re running”, across teams
• Visibility of duplication, ageing platforms and quick wins
• Scenario assumptions presented clearly, so non-specialists can challenge and explain options confidently
• Opportunities validated with usage data and consultant-led review, not guesswork

Who this is for

This pack is designed for:

• IT and infrastructure leaders needing clarity before major decisions
• Finance / Procurement / ITAM teams needing evidence they can interrogate and stand behind
• Organisations under pressure from renewals, optimisation targets, or modernisation plans

A quick note on “fully funded”

Many organisations access an Optimisation & Licensing Assessment through funded programmes (including AWS OLA), which can cover the cost of producing the assessment and report. What you do next is entirely up to you: you can simply use the outputs internally, or Perform Partners can translate the findings into clear governance, stakeholder alignment and a practical next-step plan (from quick wins through to sequencing and delivery). There’s no obligation either way, and the report remains with you.
