Bring development tools, cloud services and client-facing infrastructure into an accountable operating inventory. For software houses, check software seats, development services, infrastructure owners and recurring costs. Use current source information rather than an assumed value.

Which information should software houses collect for a review?

Start with an inventory of the services and operational assets relevant to your work. The scenario on this page concerns development tools whose capacity changes when a delivery team expands. The person responsible for that work should confirm the details with the appropriate workspace owner.

How should software houses separate operating ownership from approval?

Record who can verify information, approve a decision and complete the next action. Missing information about software seats, development services, infrastructure owners and recurring costs should be corrected in the relevant source section before relying on a result.

Which source records should software houses keep connected?

Connect upcoming renewals and commitments to a visible review workflow. Keep the outcome of development tools whose capacity changes when a delivery team expands attached to its source record, with the responsible person and the completed action.

How should software houses distinguish estimated and confirmed costs?

Maintain the context behind a record so another teammate can continue without rebuilding it. Software houses focuses on a delivery team managing tools and infrastructure alongside project demand. The page links to the sections relevant to that purpose.
