About Morten

Morten Andersen is a senior enterprise software licensing advisor with over 25 years of experience across Oracle, SAP, Broadcom/VMware, Cisco, Workday, and IBM. He is one of the most recognised specialists in software audit defence and licensing compliance in Northern Europe, with a track record of defending some of the largest Oracle and SAP audit claims in the region.

Morten's expertise spans the full licensing lifecycle: from initial contract negotiation and licence position management through to audit response, settlement negotiation, and post-audit remediation. His deep technical knowledge of Oracle's LMS methodology, SAP's indirect access rules, and Broadcom's post-acquisition VMware licensing changes makes him a trusted advisor to CTOs, CFOs, and legal teams managing high-stakes software disputes.

He has led engagements for global financial institutions, energy companies, manufacturing groups, and public-sector organisations — consistently achieving outcomes that reduce audit exposure by 60–90% versus the vendor's opening claim.
