in computer labs and classrooms over the past few years. Despite IT\u2019s suspicion that usage was trending down significantly from previous years, they had no simple way to get an accurate view of exactly how hardware and software resources were actually being used. They came to Sassafras with questions, a commitment to answering them, and a mission: to tailor future IT purchases to meet actual needs, and to save money where possible in the process.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>The University of Waikato is a medium-sized public university with around 10,000 students spread across two campuses in the Waikato &amp; Bay of Plenty regions in the Central North Island of New Zealand. The University was founded in 1964 and has a motto of \u201cFor the People\u201d, which sits at the heart of everything they do. The University has a 5-star QS score, and Waikato is ranked at \u201c250 out of the world\u2019s best 1,500 universities.\u201d According to their website, what sets Waikato apart is its forward-thinking approach to education and research. This proactive, \u201cfuture-focused\u201d mindset also applies to their business practices as a university. The University of Waikato has a number of notable alumni, including the former Prime Minister of New Zealand, Jacinda Ardern, business leaders, including Craig Nevill-Manning, Head of Engineering at Sidewalk Labs, and sporting and cultural icons, such as Olympians, and writers.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-654dd536 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"654dd536\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-403a6dc7 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"403a6dc7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-35ca1f3b e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"35ca1f3b\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1f4adb16 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1f4adb16\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Outcomes<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7f410a56 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7f410a56\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul><li><strong>Saved $440k<\/strong> in ITS costs in the first year<\/li><li><strong>An additional 1.1M<\/strong> in savings projected<\/li><li><strong>Optimized lab equipment<\/strong> based on usage data<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-52e9f9f6 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"52e9f9f6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-508e84e2 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"508e84e2\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7a4e3bd8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"7a4e3bd8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">IT Budgeting at Waikato Before Sassafras<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4f16702f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4f16702f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Prior to the coronavirus pandemic, Waikato always relied on requests from faculty, staff, and students to determine what IT resources they needed to purchase. This might sound familiar: more computers over here, additional software over there, and always more, more, more. The challenge is that requests were made based on conditions during peak hours when exams were looming, stress was high, and labs were full. Without reliable usage stats that give IT administrations and procurement teams a clear picture of real usage, how could they ascertain whether resources were being allocated efficiently? Furthermore, without real-time availability information and demand forecasting for labs, it wasn\u2019t a surprise that everyone was showing up at the same time, and coming to the conclusion that more resources were needed.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-603cd5cc e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"603cd5cc\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-12798681 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"12798681\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3b26e9f4 testimonial-icon elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"3b26e9f4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">[TeamDynamix] Sassafras was chosen as the university's toolset for ITAM, as it offered an approachable learning curve, great feature set, and<span class=\"color-teal\"> good level of return on investment. <\/span> <\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e0bef64 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"e0bef64\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-79564f10 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"79564f10\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-24611c1d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"24611c1d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Why Waikato Chose Sassafras<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6a85fcd8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6a85fcd8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Before Sassafras, the University IT Asset Management posture was limited, with Assets recorded in the University Central Asset database, but there was little way outside of physical audits to know who was using devices. Utilization tracking for hardware and software was not possible with existing systems. Faced with fresh budgetary constraints and the need to regularly refresh an ever-growing fleet of aging equipment, Waikato came to the conclusion that they needed more efficiency in their IT Asset Management workflow. That\u2019s how they found Sassafras.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>As part of a bigger project to standardize end-user deployments and Management, an ITAM stream was developed to identify requirements for ITAM at the University and scan the market to find suitable solutions. As the University was both budget-constrained and developing its ITAM skillset &amp; capabilities, tools like Snow were immediately ruled out as being cost-prohibitive, and unlikely to realize the desired outcomes in a timely manner. The University was keen for a product that took account of some of the unique requirements of Academic software and use cases, so a product with good standing in the academic sector was key. The University met with both shortlisted Vendors Certero, and Sassafras, along with reference sites for both, and after a competitive selection process, Sassafras was chosen as the University of Waikato\u2019s toolset for ITAM, as it offered an approachable learning curve, a great feature set, and a good level of return on investment.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>More than just usage tracking, Sassafras is a complete, single-pane-of-glass ITAM solution incorporating purchase records, software discovery and normalization, license management, hardware inventory management, login reporting, computer lab availability maps, and remote access. Optimized to consume minimal client, network, and server resources, Sassafras also offers powerful integrations with enterprise management tools like TeamDynamix, ServiceNow, Jira, Jamf, Intune, PaperCut, and Active Directory.

They met with the technical team at Sassafras many times during the planning and deployment phase of the project, asking questions and receiving personal configuration assistance and training tailored to their needs. After setting up the server and deploying the client \u2014 a quick and painless process that requires no third party database applications or anything but a Windows, Mac, or Linux OS \u2014 they were ready to go. Login and usage data immediately started flowing into the system, as the Sassafras team worked with Waikato to implement dynamic and automatic AD OU mapping, federated admin authentication, purchase record imports, scheduled usage reports, KPI dashboard customization, and a 12 hour Master Administrator Training course for their primary users.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-63a056f5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"63a056f5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The Results<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-16aa1824 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"16aa1824\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>When sufficient time had passed for a meaningful amount of data collection, they used the built-in tools to \u201cbetter understand the level of actual demand for undergraduate computer labs, identify potential areas of capital and operational expenditure savings and operational efficiency without impacting on the quality of teaching, providing a better student experience with up to date technology, [and] ensure we are utilizing our PC fleet investment with reduced funding with current capital constraints.\u201d<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>As of the publication date of this case study, Waikato has only just begun to feel the impact of Sassafras. Quoting directly from their early analysis of hardware usage:<br \/><br \/><\/p><ul><li>Across Tri A 2021, on average, undergraduate computer lab utilization was 16% across the University<\/li><li>There were also very low levels of instances where more than 80% of computers were used concurrently in a computer lab<\/li><li>For instance with high concurrent usage, it is highly feasible that minor timetabling changes will smooth out any demand peaks<\/li><li>Low utilization and low concurrent usage is clearly demonstrated<\/li><li>Computer Labs are timetabled by Schools, to utilize what specialized software has been licensed and deployed to each lab and then handed to central timetabling, which means some labs may only be used one or two days per week by specific students<\/li><li>The findings of this analysis show initial opportunities to improve efficiency. These savings are supported by data insights<\/li><li>The first opportunity lies in the 2022 Desktop Capital Refresh program, where several labs are up for equipment renewal<\/li><li>It is proposed that the majority of lab computers up for renewal in 2022 are not renewed, but discontinued, with consultation across Academic Divisions and Timetabling.<\/li><li>This could result in a reduction of 213 computers across 7 labs at the Hamilton Campus.<\/li><li>Even with this change, overall undergraduate computer lab utilization increases by a modest 5% to 21%, with large amounts of free capacity still in the University\u2019s computer lab network<\/li><li>This proposal is estimated to save $440k in ITS costs (equipment purchase, installation, and ongoing support) for 2022<\/li><\/ul><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Focusing on the \u201clow-hanging fruit\u201d of hardware usage prior to a major buy, Waikato has already identified an easy opportunity to save a lot of money, and they haven\u2019t even begun to analyze software usage stats!<br \/><br \/><\/p><ul><li>To demonstrate future possibilities, we examined a scenario of further reducing the number of computers by 500 PCs.

Centralized computer labs, along with 24\/7 access labs ensures equity for those who need to or prefer to use computers on campus<br \/><br \/><\/li><li>This proposal would could deliver another $1.1M in ITS savings, again excluding further savings from maintenance of physical buildings and space<br \/><br \/><\/li><li>Review financial impact associated with 3 year replacement cycle to ensure undergraduate Labs provide best possible student experience with reduced fleet<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2345fd76 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2345fd76\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The cumulative savings Waikato expects to reap from Sassafras are hard to calculate. Buying fewer computers and software products is one thing, but there are also soft cost savings associated with managing a much smaller fleet of computers, including deployment, maintenance, image management, electricity, and other kinds of overhead. When students and end users begin to use Sassafras for computer lab availability maps, for example, Sassafras customers often find that the availability of real-time lab usage data and demand forecasts smooth out peak usage, as users \u201cautomatically\u201d avoid peak hours and choose better times to use limited
