  1. Information Technology Services Division FullCost Maturity Model (FMM) “from cost transparency to fully burdened rates, a standard metric of an organization’s capability to plan the full costs of its products and services” -NDMA

  2. Information Technology Services Division The Full-cost Maturity Model is a standard metric of an organization’s capability to plan the full costs of its products and services. What is FMM?

  3. Information Technology Services Division • It is not “Traditional” Budgeting Expense Codes What is FMM? Deliverables

  4. Information Technology Services Division Problems Generated by Traditional Budgeting • Mistrust • Strained relationships • Insufficient investment in infrastructure • Poor decisions • Micro-management • Bureaucracy • Poor quality • Unrealistic expectations • Eating your seed corn • Making customers’ decisions • Lost opportunities • Lack of teamwork • Ineffective governance What is FMM?

  5. Information Technology Services Division The solution is straightforward in concept: It begins with a business plan that forecasts what products and services the organization will “sell” in the coming year. Based on the business plan, an effective budget then forecasts the full costs of those products and services. “Full cost” means not only direct costs, but a fair share of all indirect costs. What is FMM?

  6. Information Technology Services Division By knowing the full cost of its products and services, a department can submit a budget that describes the cost of deliverables (as well as the traditional expense codes by manager). • Client (Agencies) • Subsidy • Venture • Internal • Overhead What is FMM?

  7. Information Technology Services Division Rates Using the same data – the cost of its products and services – we can also calculate rates. Rates must represent the full cost of the deliverable. By using the full cost data, a department can be confident that its rates are fair, defensible, and directly comparable to benchmarks like outsourcing. What is FMM?

  8. Information Technology Services Division • Difficulty meeting customers needs with current resources • Demand is to do more with less • Our rates are frozen while our costs and service demands increase • Better alignment of rates with true costs • Avoid internal subsidization • Able to explain in detail ITSD’s rates and what is all included • Better able to define our services Why Should ITSD do FMM?

  9. Planning with the executive and project manager. • Budget Prep team analyzes org chart and lines of business. • Managers insert rows representing the products and services. • Managers synchronize the coding of prime and subcontractors. • Each row is categorized into one of five revenue sources • Rows characterized by the unit of sale…”price per WHAT.” • Managers forecast the number of units to deliver rows. • Calculation of compensation costs. • External, internal-indirect rows and overhead expenses. • Budget is assembled and reports are distributed. Information Technology Services Division What’s Involved?
