SOFTWARE RE-USE AND TRANSFERABILITY

An innovative feature of PSA09 is the introduction of transferability benefits to permit broader movement of Microsoft licences across the public sector. As a result, organisations can build a more flexible ICT environment with fewer worries about increasing their overheads. The benefits from licence transferability, helping the public sector to reallocate licences where possible, are likely to build up over time as the PSA09 becomes more widely implemented. The ability to transfer licences between organisations helps to ensure that the public sector achieves maximum value from its investment in Microsoft software.
