Abstract: Techniques are provided for managing multiple trusted relationships within a computer product licensing environment. In one example, a partner affiliated with a vendor and a customer of the vendor's products associate with each other. A vendor license manager monitors the license consumption of a customer using the vendor's products and periodically sends a consumption report to a license manager of the associated partner. If a customer's license consumption exceeds the bounds of a given license, the vendor license manager notifies the customer and the partner, and the partner assists the customer in maintaining compliance with the license.
