When asked what innovation is, a group of authors, business founders and innovation consultants had the following to say:

“Innovation is the implementation of creative ideas in order to generate value, usually through increased revenues, reduced costs or both.”

“Innovation is work that delivers new goodness to new customers in new markets, and does it in a way that radically improves the profitability equation.”

“Innovation is the introduction of new products and services that add value to the organisation.”

“Very simply put, innovation is about staying relevant.”

While none of these definitions overtly mention technology directly, everything they describe is currently being realised through the strategic use and implementation of new technologies and solutions. Especially in the era of digitalisation, with the integration of digital technologies into all aspects of our everyday lives.

For businesses, managing all of these new tools and digital innovations can prove complicated. Especially when one considers all of the different technologies that are currently being used to communicate, automate, collaborate and just generally improve how modern organisations are run.

OneView is a technology expense management solution that allows businesses to use the latest technology to drive innovation, without having to worry about managing and monitoring what technologies are actually being used. Technology expense management solutions help companies better understand what technology services (typically cloud and telecoms) they are buying, the real cost of what they’re buying and how what they are buying is being used.

OneView automates the management of technology, allowing the company to continue on their quest to change the world. The last thing a business wants is for their digitalisation efforts to blow the budget. With a technology expense management solution in place, spending is managed via real-time alerts and simplified cost allocations.

This visibility gives business leaders and financial executives the peace of mind they need to embrace new technologies, without having to worry about overspending.

Here’s what OneView offers:

• Cloud spend and consumption tracking
• Benchmarking and cost allocations
• High consumption notifications
• Inventory management
• Technology deployments
• Credit recovery of billing errors
• Service request integration
