A compliance assessment builds your effective licence position (ELP) — what you own versus what you actually deploy — before a vendor does it for you. Below are independent firms covering compliance assessment in Brazil, listed alphabetically with balanced pros and cons.

A compliance assessment, or effective-licence-position (ELP) review, is the buyer-side health check that puts you ahead of an audit: it reconciles entitlements against real deployment across Oracle, Microsoft, SAP, IBM and the wider estate, surfaces exposure early, and gives you the evidence to correct it on your own terms. Brazilian enterprises and the large public sector face routine vendor reviews, so an independent ELP is the cheapest insurance against a surprise true-up.
The firms below are global independents that cover the Brazil market. Most run ELP work alongside optimisation and negotiation, because the same data that proves compliance also reveals where you are over-licensed.
Brazil is a civil-law market and Latin America’s largest software economy. Software deals are governed by the vendor’s master agreement, frequently under Brazilian, US or other governing law for regional estates, and an audit is a contractual right rather than a statutory power. A compliance assessment is preparatory commercial work — it has no legal force in itself, but the position it documents shapes how any later audit or renewal plays out.
Brazil’s LGPD (overseen by the ANPD) governs how deployment and usage data is handled during the assessment, and public buyers procure under the federal procurement law (Lei 14.133/2021) that affects how remediation or a renewal can be structured. Portuguese-language support and local presence are worth confirming when you match.
The points above are general information about the Brazil market, not legal advice. Local law and your contract govern any specific situation — take qualified Brazil advice before acting.

It is a buyer-side review that reconciles what you own against what you actually deploy, producing your effective licence position. Done before a vendor audit, it surfaces exposure early so you can correct it on your own terms — and often reveals where you are over-licensed.
A compliance assessment is proactive — you commission it to know your position. Audit defense is reactive — it manages a review the vendor has already opened. Many firms offer both, and a clean ELP makes any later defence far stronger.
