Case Study: National Mortgage Company achieves $1M in savings with Crayon

Crayon Optimizes IBM Software Estate For National Mortgage Company

National Mortgage Company, a national leader in the mortgage industry, faced significant challenges with its IBM software estate. After paying millions in audit fees, the company discovered its IBM License Management Tool (ILMT) was outdated and improperly implemented, leaving them without the in-house expertise to achieve continuous compliance.

Crayon worked closely with the client to optimize their environment. Their solution involved conducting bundling analyses, identifying and removing backup servers, decommissioning unused hardware, and upgrading and correctly configuring the ILMT for accurate reporting. As a direct result of this engagement with Crayon, the client achieved full compliance and realized one million dollars in savings.
