Q: What is this book about?
A: This book is a practical, real-world guide to building and managing an effective IT Asset Management (ITAM) function. It shows you how to control hardware, software, licenses, budgets, theft, misplacement, audits, data security, renewals, and the disposal of unused assets. It explains ITAM as a strategic business function, and not just a boring inventory task.
Q: Why is IT Asset Management essential today?
A: Organizations waste 20–30% of their IT budgets due to poor asset visibility, unused software licenses, shadow IT, and aging infrastructure. This book shows how to reduce those losses, improve compliance, and strengthen operational control. Without ITAM, companies lose money through unused software, overspending on licenses, unmanaged cloud costs, poor inventory visibility, and compliance failures. This book shows you how to stop the leakage and gain full control.
Q: Who is this book for?
A: Technology Managers, CIOs, CTOs, CFOs, Auditors, Procurement Teams, Board Members, IT Support Managers, Finance Managers, and anyone responsible for IT assets or IT budgets.
Q: What will I learn?
A: You will learn how to set up an IT Asset Department, establish asset policies, track assets, manage vendors, handle software licensing, prevent theft and loss, clean up shadow IT, manage budgets, and support senior management in decision-making.
Q: What makes this book useful?
A: It contains practical steps, real-life scenarios, career tips, management advice, and insights drawn from 30 years of hands-on IT infrastructure and ITAM experience of the author.
