Case Study: MemorialCare achieves $3M+ cost avoidance, sub-hour audit response and stronger compliance with Flexera

MemorialCare boosts savings and compliance with greater visibility

MemorialCare Health Systems, a Southern California hospital system with five hospitals and 15,000+ employees, faced persistent challenges in software license compliance, version control and change management across thousands of endpoints and servers. Their Sr. Software Compliance Manager identified that the organization lacked reliable discovery and entitlement visibility, making audits and license rationalization slow and error-prone.

They deployed Snow SaaS Management and Snow Spend Optimizer (using a discovery agent via Microsoft SCCM), compared installations to their internal catalog, reclaimed unused licenses, and partnered with SoftwareOne for procurement and reviews. As a result, MemorialCare achieved over $3M in cost avoidance over ten years, cut audit response time from eight weeks to under an hour, identified potential 10% Oracle savings, improved HIPAA-related device handling, and streamlined management of roughly 400 software titles across ~14,500 devices.
