Cost transparency offers cost-savings potential

In order to work economically, it is more important now than ever before for companies to be able to completely plan, include and assign incurred costs to the respective cost centre. Is the project viable? In connection with economic analysis and large investments, it must be defined when they begin to amortize or achieve positive effects. Important key figures are ROI (= Return on Investment) and TCO (= Total Cost of Ownership). This also applies to the IT domain.

Example: A company rethinks its IT strategy and would like to know if the installation of a Server Based Computing environment is economically feasible. What investments need to be made? Which cost advantages exist through an optimal Client/Server management based on "Best-Practices" solutions? How do the costs evolve when e.g. a new operating system is installed? Which costs reduce and which increase? What other influential factors are there?

Or: purchasing PDAs (Personal Digital Assistant)/ notebooks for employees presents an investment at first glance. But what savings can be argued for them? How high is the value of its usage when trips are saved each week, through the possibility of working with mobile technology, because one can quickly get access and react to important data or mails from anywhere? In short: Can mobile employees invest their work time more effectively?

In case the answers to these or other similar questions are important to your company, we can help you.

The solution: InTelli-Costs

Our service package for you contains:

1. TCO and ROI studies based on the Gartner and the Maturity TCO models. The cost analysis comprises expenditures for hardware, software, organisation, the inclusion of "Best Practices" etc.,
2. Complete cost examination with investments and depreciation

What do you stand to gain from this?

You will receive meaningful cost analyses concerning your IT project - and can then decide if the investment is viable for you.
A pronounced understanding of the cost structure, its most important influential factors and control variables in the company is important because: more outgoings for technology do not necessarily also assume more use. On the other hand, it is certainly possible that through an intelligent adaptation of technology, not only cost reduction but also an improvement in user services can be effected.
