On-Demand Webcast:
Building a Mature Rates Model:
Using the Budget Process to Drive Rates

Rates are calculated simply as cost divided by volume. But there is much more to it than that. This webinar discusses the key elements to rates modeling, such as:

• Maturing the service catalog
• Identifying billable units
• Aligning costs with billable products
• Tracking and forecasting
• Gaining feedback on business demand
• Processing over/under recovery

Two case studies are presented. One is a Shared Services Provider who developed rates based on budgets and successfully billed business units to recover costs. The other is a Federal Government supplier, who must bill everything "to the penny," as required by contract. Both companies used Apptio's Service Costing and Bill of IT to automate the rates modeling process.

This is the seventh webinar in the 2011 series, "Understanding and Leveraging IT Financial Transparency to Improve Business Alignment." Join experts from SteelGlass Consulting, leaders in IT transparency professional services, for this complimentary educational webinar series brought to you by Apptio.
