Transparent evaluation of use/benefit and IT value contribution
»It is expected to apply a material method of investigation to establish the ratio between expenditures and Return-on-Investment (ROI) that can also identify the value contribution of an IT Implementation.«

Representation of the value added for any IT project/product
A particular challenge for IT-Management is how to calculate, and transparently represent, the specific added value of an IT project to the enterprise. Cost Xpert’s expertise offers qualified support to measure the value contribution of IT investments, and for purpose of comparison, as well as their overall effectiveness.
Integration and combination of relevant factors
The key lies in the ability to objectively arrive at a realistic estimate for effort, schedule and cost over the entire lifecycle. Due to the intelligent integration and combination of all relevant factors in IME, it is possible to reliably estimate based on requirements and/or change requests. In doing so, the real equivalent value of a requirement (and/or change request) is identified. The resulting transparency, coupled with in-depth analysis, promotes qualified discourse and supports the economic decision making process to maximize value.
- How can specific benefits of IT projects be identified and objectively evaluated?
- What actual equivalent value does a specific feature/requirement represent?
- What potentials can be realized with the deployment of an IT application?
- What is the ratio between cost and benefit for individual requirements and for the entire project?
- How can you credibly establish the capitalization value for an application?
- How can IT investments yield the highest value contribution?
IME provides reliable support to transparently measure the specific values of IT contributions.
