Departments, Faculty, and Staff across campus often
negotiate their own software license agreements.
 Identical or similar software is purchased
 Lost opportunity for volume discounts
 Faculty, Staff, Students not aware of available software
 Higher administration cost to the University
 Distributed administration, packaging & software distribution
Current State
its.unc.edu 3
Increase the utilization of University software licenses by
improving campus awareness of available software and by
providing an easier process for acquiring it.
 Substantial cost savings to the University
• Volume discounts
• Centralized administration

2009-2010 Campus Cost Savings
$8,822,476.05
Cost savings are based on top 10 software titles ordered and
calculation derived by license cost through Software Acquisition

Cost Savings
its.unc.edu 6
 Form a Software Licensing Committee
 Engage the University community to determine what similar or
identical software products are being purchased in order to
identify opportunities for cost savings
 Design and implement a new, more user-friendly software ordering
site for the University to replace the current IT Purchasing System
(ITP). We envision a one stop shop for Faculty, Staff and Students
that would also allow for distribution by download
 Redesign http://software.unc.edu with a more user-friendly
interface
