  • Utilise SAM technologies and their capabilities including Flexera’s FlexNet Manager Suite (FNMS), Snow License Manager, and Service Now SAM Pro.
  • Interpret data outputs from the SAM technologies and other tools to provide accurate and timely reporting.
  • Consult with service management, and customer teams to define, optimise, and develop SAM standards, processes, procedures, plans and controls to ensure appropriate service asset information is recorded and maintained.
  • Support the managed and professional services sales process by providing insight to the bid manager into the required effort, dependencies, exclusions, etc.
