Software Asset Management (SAM) Discussion

Microsoft SAM Optimization Model



Microsoft has created and announced the SAM Optimization Model to help organisations assess
their current SAM programs and to set goals for future program improvements. This model is
based on the ISO/IEC 19770-1:2006 standard and is a stepping stone to conformance with that
standard. The details of the program will be presented in more detail at the Microsoft Worldwide
Partner Conference the week of July 7, 2008.

For more information on the SAM Optimization Model, please see Michael Beare’s web cast at the
Microsoft Momentum site:
