What it is
Procurement done as a managed function — we run a spend audit, standardize a catalogue, source through tier-1 partners, and own the lifecycle from purchase order to retirement.
Because we're independent, our recommendations serve your budget and roadmap — not a quota. We consolidate fragmented vendors, eliminate shelfware, align licensing to actual usage, and put every purchase under a single, auditable process. The result is lower cost, less risk, and a refresh plan you can forecast.
- Independent & honest. We negotiate for you, across vendors, with no allegiance to one brand.
- One catalogue, one process. Standardized kit and approvals replace ad-hoc, maverick buying.
- Lifecycle owned. Warranty, refresh, and disposal tracked so nothing is a surprise.

Challenges we solve
Where uncontrolled IT buying leaks money.
Without a procurement function, spend fragments across vendors, licenses drift out of compliance, and refreshes happen in a panic.
Vendor sprawl
A dozen suppliers, a dozen invoices, no leverage — and no one with the full picture of what you own.
Vendor consolidationPanic refreshes
Hardware fails or licensing audits hit, and you're buying reactively at the worst price.
Forecasted lifecycle planning
Key capabilities
Procurement, end to end
From the first spend review to ongoing lifecycle management — one accountable partner.
Spend & license audit
A full picture of what you own, use, and waste — the baseline for every saving that follows.
Vendor consolidation
Fewer, stronger supplier relationships and negotiated pricing that leverages your combined volume.
Hardware sourcing
Business-grade endpoints, servers, networking, and security gear from Dell, Lenovo, HP, Cisco, and HPE.
Software & licensing
Microsoft, Adobe, and VMware licensing right-sized to actual usage and consolidated onto one renewal calendar.
Procurement workflow

Lower cost, less risk, zero guesswork.
- Real savings. Recovered shelfware and negotiated pricing cut annual IT spend.

- One accountable partner. A single point of contact across every vendor and asset.
FAQ
Common questions about IT procurement
How is working with QTSI different from buying direct from Dell or Lenovo?
QTSI is vendor-neutral. We compare pricing and configurations across all of our tier-1 partners and recommend what genuinely fits your needs and budget — not what a single vendor is incentivized to push. You also get a single point of contact for all vendors, unified invoicing, warranty coordination, and lifecycle management rather than juggling multiple supplier relationships.
Do you handle software licensing as well as hardware?
Yes. We source and manage Microsoft 365, Azure, Adobe, VMware, and other software licensing. We right-size licenses to actual usage, consolidate renewals onto a single calendar, and alert you before auto-renewals — so you're never paying for seats you don't need. License audits regularly uncover thousands of dollars in annual shelfware.
What is the typical lead time for hardware orders?
Standard business-class laptops and desktops are typically two to four weeks from order to delivery. Enterprise servers, networking gear, and specialty configurations can take four to eight weeks depending on availability. QTSI plans refresh cycles ahead of time so lead times are never a surprise — or a panic.
Can you help us right-size our Microsoft 365 licensing?
Yes — and it almost always produces savings. We audit your tenancy against actual usage: who uses which apps, which plans are over-specified, which seats can be downgraded. We then consolidate onto the right SKUs and align renewals so you negotiate from knowledge rather than convenience.
Do you manage ongoing warranty claims and device replacements?
Yes. QTSI tracks warranty status for every device we source and manages claims on your behalf — so a failed drive or dead laptop becomes a ticket we handle, not a task your staff spends half a day on with a vendor support line. We also proactively plan replacements before warranties expire.

What clients say
Real savings from real procurement partnerships
Alberta and Canadian organizations that stopped overpaying and started buying smarter.
QTSI sourced 42 Dell laptops at 18% below what we'd been quoted directly. They also found $31,000 in unused Microsoft 365 licenses sitting in our tenancy that we'd been auto-renewing for two years. The procurement review paid for itself in the first quarter.
$31K in unused licensing recovered
Getting quotes from six vendors, managing delivery, and tracking warranties used to be a part-time job for two people. Now it's handled. One call, one invoice, one contact who knows our environment. The consolidation alone was worth it.
