Abstract
- The article focuses on the efforts of chief information officers (CIOs) in U.S.-based local governments to explore collaborative software licensing arrangements with vendors. To cut software costs and earn revenues for the local government, such arrangement include selling in-house developed applications to other municipalities and hosting their databases without any additional licensing fees. As a vendor, Microsoft has developed the "mobility licensing" policy that allows customers to transfer existing licenses to other hosting environments.
