White Paper:
Technology Business Management
Managing the Cost, Quality and Value of IT Services
For most organizations, the value of IT remains subjective or, at best, measured in technical terms that are not familiar to the rest of the business.
This is probably driving you "like many CIOs" to seek ways to optimize and demonstrate the value of IT. The answer is to run your IT organization like a business, not a cost center, and manage value in the financial terms that are familiar to the business.
Transforming IT in this manner demands a new approach that is rooted in the language of business -- money! This executive brief discusses:
- Why it is time to look at your IT differently
- How a new approach - Technology Business Management - helps CIOs and other IT leaders understand the cost, quality and value of their IT services
- The importance of focusing on IT services as the economic unit of value
- How Apptio's approach to Technology Business Management quickly delivers significant value while providing a foundation for long-term growth and innovation
Ultimately, running IT like a business means orienting your business financially. No longer will you express the value of IT in technical jargon that few people understand. Instead, prove your value in the business language of your peers, customers and executives.
