Why an IT audit in Ghent with YK
YK is based in Ghent. We come on site, no call centre and no portal.
Spin-offs and scale-ups at the Science Park
Companies around Tech Lane Ghent Science Park grow fast and pile up SaaS subscriptions. We count the seats no one bothers to cancel.
Manufacturers and family-run SMEs
An ERP from 2011, Excel alongside it and three disconnected tools. We map what each piece costs and what it actually does.
Biotech and labs
Specialised software with expensive maintenance contracts. We check whether the usage still justifies the annual renewal.
On site, short lines
We are based in Ghent, so we come and sit at your table. We go through invoices and contracts together, not through a ticketing system.
How the four weeks run
Week 1: inventory
We gather invoices, contracts and access. You appoint one point of contact, we do the digging.
Weeks 2 and 3: analysis
Cost, usage and security side by side. We check every assumption with your IT and finance, not only afterwards.
Week 4: report and conversation
You receive the baseline and the scenarios. We go through them together and you decide what happens next.
Go or no-go
If you want to build afterwards, we do that in waves with a go/no-go at each wave. If you only want to use the report, that is fine too.
Curious about the order of magnitude?
Work out in a few minutes what your current IT landscape costs per year, before you start the audit.
