01 · PRACTICE

What this firm does

Livingstone Technologies is an independent software asset management firm that runs multi-vendor SAM and audit-readiness programmes as a managed service for large, global organisations.

Its model is continuous rather than incident-driven: it keeps the estate measured and audit-ready between reviews, which can shorten and strengthen a response when an audit letter does arrive.

Pros and cons

A balanced read so you can weigh this firm yourself. We do not rank or recommend firms.

Pros
  • Independent managed-service model with no reseller relationship
  • Continuous, multi-vendor SAM that keeps the estate audit-ready between reviews
  • London-headquartered with global delivery reach
Cons
  • Managed-service slant rather than dedicated litigation-grade audit defense
  • Ongoing-programme model may exceed the need of a one-off audit response
  • Breadth across many vendors can mean less depth than a single-vendor specialist

Independence status

Livingstone Technologies is an independent managed-service firm with no reseller relationship, which is listed as a pro because its incentives sit with the buyer. Its managed-service slant is a factual trade-off to weigh against a firm built specifically for litigation-grade, one-off audit defense.
