Case Study: A.P. Moller-Maersk achieves millions in software savings and improved ITAM visibility with Flexera's FlexNet Manager

Packaging up millions in savings for a global shipping giant

Maersk, the global transport and logistics giant operating across 130 countries, faced fragmented IT asset management due to independently run business units and an outsourced ITAM program. The company was overpaying for software, exposed to vendor license audits, and sought greater visibility and control to reduce financial and reputational risk.

Maersk brought ITAM in-house, consolidated governance under a single team, and implemented a phased deployment of Flexera’s FlexNet Manager to reconcile licenses—starting with its top software vendors. The reconciliation uncovered years of overbuying, producing millions in savings (including a first true-up that required no payment to a key vendor), achieving 95% asset management coverage and an ROI that paid for the solution within six months.
