IT Purchasing & Solutions for Growing Businesses

Expanding your IT shouldn't mean overpaying for the wrong equipment or getting locked into a single vendor. Salt Data Innovations provides vendor-neutral procurement consulting for companies in Romania. We assess your actual needs, compare options across the market, and recommend solutions that match your workload, budget, and growth plans — then handle sourcing, licensing, and delivery so you don't have to.

Common Challenges

Signs you need independent procurement advice

Overpaying for the wrong solutions

Without a structured evaluation, companies often buy hardware that's overpowered for their needs or software with features they'll never use. The result is wasted budget and underutilized assets.

Vendor lock-in without independent advice

Relying on a single vendor's sales team for recommendations means you only see one side of the picture. An independent assessment ensures you compare options and choose what actually fits your environment.

No procurement expertise in-house

Evaluating server specifications, comparing storage architectures, or negotiating volume licensing requires specialized knowledge. Most companies don't have a dedicated procurement team for IT.

Wasted or mismanaged licenses

Software licensing is complex. Companies frequently pay for licenses they don't use, fall out of compliance, or miss volume discounts because no one is actively managing the licensing portfolio.

What We Deliver

End-to-end IT procurement, tailored to your needs

We handle the entire purchasing process: from understanding what you need, to evaluating what's available on the market, to sourcing and delivering the right solution. Our recommendations are vendor-neutral — we work with a broad ecosystem of technology partners, but our priority is finding the best fit for your specific environment and budget.

IT needs assessment

We start by understanding your current environment, growth plans, and technical requirements. what workloads you need to support, what growth you expect, and what budget you're working with. This determines everything that follows.

Market comparison & recommendation

We evaluate products from across the market — not just from a single vendor. We compare specifications, total cost of ownership, support options, and compatibility with your existing infrastructure, then present clear recommendations with rationale.

Licensing audit & optimization

We review your current software licenses: what's in use, what's unused, what's expiring, and where you're overpaying. We then recommend the right licensing model — whether that's volume licensing, subscription, or perpetual — and manage renewals.

Vendor negotiation & procurement

We leverage our industry partnerships to negotiate competitive pricing, priority delivery, and extended warranties. You get better terms than going direct because we aggregate purchasing power across our client base.

Delivery & asset documentation

We coordinate delivery, verify that everything matches the order, and document each asset in your inventory: serial numbers, warranty dates, license keys, and configurations. Nothing gets lost or forgotten.

Post-purchase support coordination

After delivery, we coordinate with vendors for setup assistance, warranty claims, or returns. If you need installation or configuration, we can handle that too — or connect you with our infrastructure team.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What types of IT equipment can you source?+
Anything from servers, storage, and networking gear to workstations, laptops, peripherals, and software licenses. We cover the full range of IT procurement, from a single device to a complete office rollout.
Are you tied to specific vendors?+
No. While we have partnerships with a broad ecosystem of technology vendors that give us competitive pricing and priority support, our recommendations are always based on what fits your needs best. We evaluate options across the market, including vendors outside our partner network when appropriate.
Can you help with software licensing specifically?+
Yes. Licensing is one of the most common areas where companies overpay or fall out of compliance. We audit your current licenses, recommend the optimal licensing model, and manage renewals and true-ups.
How does pricing work for your consulting?+
For straightforward purchases, our consulting is built into the procurement pricing — there's no separate fee. For complex assessments or licensing audits, we quote a fixed project fee upfront so you know exactly what to expect.
How long does the procurement process take?+
Standard hardware and software orders are typically delivered within 1-3 weeks depending on availability. Complex projects with custom configurations may take longer. We provide clear timelines upfront.
Can you also install and configure what you sell?+
Yes. We offer end-to-end service: procurement, installation, and configuration. If you need a full infrastructure build, our infrastructure design and build service covers everything from blueprint to handover.
