Thirty years of enterprise IT, distilled into something you can use on Monday morning.Operational ITAM is a podcast about the unglamorous machinery of enterprise technology — hardware and software asset management, licensing, audit defense, SaaS governance, and the money quietly leaking out of all of them. Host Bill Van Nort has led IT asset management, end-user computing, and workplace technology at large organizations across banking, mortgage, and automotive, reclaimed millions in software spend, and survived audits from the biggest publishers on the planet.No vendor pitches disguised as advice. No jargon for its own sake. When something is an opinion, he says so. When the honest answer is "it depends," he tells you what it depends on.New episodes cover the fundamentals that never change: know what you have, know where it is, know what it costs, know when it leaves.
