The OA project is focused on providing the greatest value for your enterprises purchasing dollar and then projecting those values throughout our global infrastructure. The underlying concept is based on the time-honored proposition that the open competition that currently thrives at many levels of hardware and software drives down prices and drives up performance to create the unprecedented values we have in many areas across the market today.

But competition is currently restricted at many levels; in fact, we will clearly show that the crucial - leadership Fortune 500 procurement expression for the desktop and laptop microprocessor actually supports closed architecture attributes for both the enterprise and our global infrastructure.

We specialize in being able to show where you are being adversely impacted by these anti-competitive restrictions and have proven methodologies that can be used to lower your costs and increase your purchasing power without necessarily having to add any more complexity to your organization. The core of this offering is “The Open Architecture Procurement Model” for the desktop and laptop microprocessor because it is here where the lack of competition is currently doing all of us the most damage. 

Rob Enderle the leading analyst covering desktop and mobile computing in a recent article http://www.technewsworld.com/story/46456.html estimated a company buying 100,000 machines could save $10M dollars using our methodology.

These open architecture tools proffered here were developed by IT and procurement professionals and shared here for your consideration. We do ask that if your enterprise is moving in this direction that you interact with us to share your experiences at our contact information below. Additionally, under the FAQ tab we will post responses to your questions.
