Case Study: EDF achieves 100% audit compliance with License Dashboard’s SAM Essentials

EDF achieves 100% audit compliance with License Dashboard

UK energy company EDF faced significant challenges managing software audits across its highly secure, multi-network IT estate. Following several difficult and costly audits, the company sought to bolster its internal SAM team's expertise and gain control over its complex licensing environment. To address this, EDF invested in the SAM Essentials service from License Dashboard.

License Dashboard's solution combined its License Manager tool with a managed service, providing dedicated consultancy, team training, and quarterly health checks. The results were transformative: EDF successfully passed two major software publisher audits with 100% compliance, eliminating hefty unbudgeted costs. The SAM team matured into a certified Centre of Excellence, gained full visibility over its software estate, and virtually eliminated Shadow IT.
