IT Accounting – Proving Value
A recent survey of fifteen Danish municipalities showed their total IT costs, including hidden user costs, to be half those of comparable private sector organisations. Yet the service provided by these municipalities was just as good as, if not better than, municipalities still paying a lot more for their IT support.

In this webinar, Chris Dale considers how IT Optima’s comparative measures and benchmarks – linking costs, user perception of value, and technical and business complexity – can be used to radically improve IT productivity and performance.
