Case Study: AstraZeneca achieves nearly $2 million in first-year savings with Flexera

AstraZeneca saves $2 million in one year with Flexera

AstraZeneca, a global biopharmaceutical manufacturer, faced significant challenges with its outdated and inefficient software management system. The company's internal software store was difficult for employees to use, and its catalog of over 3,700 applications was hard to search. Furthermore, a lack of integration with its outsourced software asset management program created a resource-intensive manual process that restricted the company's growth. To address this, AstraZeneca turned to vendor Flexera for a solution.

Flexera implemented its App Broker and FlexNet Manager Suite to improve software asset management and create a more intuitive, rebranded internal app store called the AZ SoftwareStore. This solution streamlined service delivery and significantly improved the user experience for employees. As a result, AstraZeneca saw an 89% reduction in its bloated software catalog and achieved nearly $2 million in labor savings in the first year alone. The enhancements also created over 25,000 hours annually that could be reallocated to revenue-enhancing initiatives.
