    • Understanding of the underlying problems with software contract entitlements and how the technologies of software discovery systems play their part in mapping entitlements with the inventory.  Preferred experience with SAM Tools and managed service providers (e.g., experience with SCCM, Snow, or Flexera is a plus).
