Our Story

Built by practitioners who've sat on both sides of the table

IT Negotiations was founded over two decades ago by enterprise software veterans who recognised a fundamental imbalance: software vendors deploy teams of trained negotiators armed with pricing analytics, quota pressure, and deep knowledge of buyer behaviour — while enterprise buyers are left to navigate these negotiations alone.

We built IT Negotiations to fix that imbalance. Our senior advisors bring the same depth of vendor-side intelligence to the buyer's table — helping enterprises reclaim leverage, eliminate waste, and secure terms that actually reflect their market position.

Today, with over 500 completed engagements across 11 major software vendors, we are recognised by Gartner as a specialist advisor in enterprise software negotiation. Our results speak for themselves — average savings of 25–40% on major renewals, $20M+ audit claims reduced to zero, and outcomes that persist across multi-year contract cycles.

How We Work →
"We don't pitch software. We don't take referral fees. We don't have vendor relationships that could compromise your outcome. We are one thing only: your negotiator."
IT Negotiations — Founding Principle
Gartner Recognition

IT Negotiations is recognised by Gartner as a specialist advisory firm in enterprise software negotiation and licensing optimisation. Our methodologies have been cited in Gartner research on software procurement best practices.

Core Principles

What makes us different

Four commitments that define every engagement we take on.

01 — Independence
No vendor affiliations. Ever.
We receive no commissions, referral fees, or commercial incentives from any software vendor. Our independence is absolute and non-negotiable. It is the foundation of every recommendation we make and every position we take at the table.
02 — Buyer Side Only
We work exclusively for enterprise buyers.
Unlike advisory firms that advise both buyers and vendors, we operate exclusively on the buyer side. This eliminates any conflict of interest and ensures that our strategies, intelligence, and negotiating positions are designed solely to maximise your outcome.
03 — Senior Advisors Only
No junior analysts. No bait-and-switch.
Every engagement is led by a senior advisor with deep vendor-specific expertise. The person you speak with in the sales process is the person who leads your negotiation. Our team page is transparent about who you'll work with and why it matters.
04 — Fixed-Fee & Gain-Share
Aligned incentives. Predictable cost.
We offer both fixed-fee and gain-share engagement models. In gain-share engagements, our fee is tied to the savings we deliver — meaning our interests are perfectly aligned with yours. Learn more about our engagement models.

Our Approach

Intelligence-led negotiation at every stage

We bring vendor pricing intelligence, benchmark data, and 20+ years of deal-room experience to every engagement.

🔍
Discovery & Benchmarking
We begin every engagement by auditing your current contracts, usage data, and renewal history against market benchmarks to identify where you are overpaying.
🧠
Strategy Development
We build a vendor-specific negotiation strategy — identifying leverage points, walk-away positions, competitive alternatives, and timing tactics to maximise your position.
🤝
Active Negotiation
Our advisors lead or directly support negotiations — engaging vendor account teams with the authority and data needed to secure materially better terms.
📋
Contract Review
We review final contract language for unfavourable clauses, audit triggers, auto-renewal terms, and lock-in provisions before you sign.
📊
Post-Deal Optimisation
We help you implement what you negotiated — license reconciliation, usage tracking, and 12-month planning to preserve your leverage for the next cycle.
