What does the ISO/IEC 19770 Toolkit include?
The ISO/IEC 19770 Toolkit includes 200+ maturity assessment questions, a 49-criteria compliance checklist, a 27-phase implementation playbook, policy templates in Word, inventory and audit worksheets in Excel, a vendor compliance assessment form, an executive briefing deck, and a scoring engine for gap analysis. All files are provided in downloadable digital format (PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint) for immediate use.
Are you exposing your organisation to legal penalties, security breaches, and financial losses because your software assets aren’t managed in alignment with ISO/IEC 19770 standards? Without a formal Software Asset Management (SAM) programme grounded in ISO/IEC 19770, you risk non-compliance during audits, unauthorised software use, overspending on licences, and increased cyber risk from unpatched or unlicensed applications. The ISO/IEC 19770 Toolkit gives you everything you need to design, implement, and audit a standards-compliant SAM programme, ensuring full licence compliance, reducing IT spend by up to 30%, and protecting your organisation from regulatory and operational risk.
What You Receive
- 49 prioritised compliance requirements in a ready-to-use Excel checklist: Map every aspect of your SAM programme to ISO/IEC 19770 clauses and conduct gap assessments in under an hour.
- 200+ maturity assessment questions across six domains, Strategy, Discovery, Inventory, Licence Management, Risk & Compliance, and Optimisation: Identify weaknesses in your current processes and benchmark your SAM maturity level against international best practice.
- Step-by-step implementation playbook with 27-phase action plan: Guide your team from scoping to deployment with clear milestones, RACI matrices, and role assignments for IT, procurement, and legal teams.
- Policy and procedure templates (Word format): Deploy compliant SAM policies for software discovery, licence reconciliation, and vendor audit response, customisable to your organisation’s size and structure.
- Software inventory audit worksheet (Excel): Automate data collection from discovery tools, reconcile installed vs. entitled licences, and generate audit-ready reports with built-in validation rules.
- Vendor compliance assessment template: Evaluate third-party suppliers and cloud providers against ISO/IEC 19770-5 standards to ensure contractual and technical compliance.
- Executive briefing deck (PowerPoint): Present SAM readiness, risk exposure, and ROI projections to leadership with professionally designed slides aligned to governance reporting standards.
- Self-assessment scoring engine: Automatically calculate your compliance score, highlight high-risk gaps, and generate a prioritised remediation roadmap with effort and impact ratings.
How This Helps You
Implementing the ISO/IEC 19770 Toolkit transforms your software asset management from a reactive, error-prone process into a strategic, audit-proof function. You’ll eliminate overspending on redundant or unused licences, reduce your exposure to vendor audits by maintaining provable compliance, and strengthen your cybersecurity posture by ensuring all software is authorised, updated, and traceable. Organisations without structured SAM programmes face average penalty costs of $1.2 million in unlicensed software settlements. By contrast, users of this toolkit consistently achieve compliance in under 90 days and realise full ROI within six months. Delaying implementation means continuing to operate blind to licence risks, overpaying for software, and leaving your organisation vulnerable to enforcement actions from Microsoft, Adobe, Oracle, and other major vendors.
Who Is This For?
- IT Asset Managers and SAM Practitioners: Build a standards-aligned SAM programme from scratch or mature an existing one with proven frameworks.
- Compliance Officers and Risk Managers: Proactively identify and remediate software compliance risks before audits occur.
- IT Directors and CISOs: Strengthen governance, reduce IT spend, and align software management with ISO/IEC 27001, GDPR, and SOX requirements.
- Procurement and Licensing Teams: Gain clarity on licence entitlements, optimise renewals, and negotiate from a position of data-driven strength.
- Consultants and Implementation Leads: Deliver ISO/IEC 19770 readiness projects faster with reusable templates and assessment tools.
Choosing the ISO/IEC 19770 Toolkit isn’t just about buying a resource, it’s about making the strategic decision to protect your organisation, control costs, and operate with confidence. This is the professional standard for SAM compliance, trusted by global enterprises to pass audits, optimise spending, and future-proof software governance.
