The Rationalization Window: Turning OSS/BSS Tool Sprawl Into AI-Native Savings

You know the tools. You signed the contracts five, ten, maybe fifteen years ago. They made sense at the time. Now they don’t — but the checks keep getting written.

This white paper is about the money trapped inside maintenance contracts, infrastructure hosting, SI retainers, and skills premiums for OSS/BSS platforms your organization already wants to eliminate. It makes the case that the budget to fund an AI-native replacement isn’t new money. It’s money you’re already spending on tools that are no longer earning their keep.
