  2. IT Organizations Are Under Tremendous Pressure • Change:Market demands, workloads, service levels • Compliance:Regulations, security, audit capabilities • Complexity:Heterogeneous resources, silos, composite applications • Cost:Management and administration “What matters is how satisfied customers are, how costs are being saved on the supplier side, and how to allow for more creativity and added value at all levels of the organization. “ --Erik Brynjolfsson, Director of the Center for eBusiness at MIT Tivoli Usage and Accounting Manager

  3. Dilemma of Simplicity Versus Shared Workloads • Dedicated systems and storage: • Advantage: simple to account for with a spreadsheet - one machine, one workload, and one cost center • Problems - resources are highly under utilized which means: • Paying more for hardware and software • Unnecessarily high energy costs • Using more real estate than required • More assets that are harder to track, manage, and maintain • Inflexible to varying peak in demand • Shared systems and storage: • Advantages are: • Better utilization of existing resources so future investments can be deferred • More cost effective – hardware, software, energy, staff, and floor space • More responsive to differing peak loads • Challenge: • How do I allocate costs • Prove to the users they’re getting what they deserve Tivoli Usage and Accounting Manager

  4. Virtualization needs and challenges amongst those implementing Inhibitors amongst Implementing Motivators * Source: IBM Systems Directions 1Q 2006 Source: IBM Systems Directions 1Q 2006 *‘People worry they might not get enough resources. They believe they will get less than they need.’ (Mgr. IT Germany) ‘It’s a matter of convincing people at the beginning because they won’t have their own hardware. For us, virtualization worked so long as it was on one platform, but then platforms were assigned to different departments and those departments now had to work together.’ (Dir. IT Germany) ‘It involves trying to convince people not to order servers but to allow resources to be pooled into a virtual environment…trying to convince the business stakeholders to do this. The first moment someone has a problem, they will blame the virtualization.’ (VP IT; US) Source: ITS Virtualization Research Feb 2006 Tivoli Usage and Accounting Manager

  5. Better IT - Business alignment Increased flexibility Increased utilization Reduce costs IT Resource Optimization: stages of adoption Business Value Orchestrate: Achieve Policy-based computing Provision: Automate Capacity & Workload Mgt Virtualize: Create logical asset pools Simplify: Consolidate IT assets Know costs Ability to Dynamically Respond Tivoli Usage and Accounting Manager

  6. What are the objectives of an IT Usage and Accounting Management System… • Allocate/Distribute or Charge IT Costs to the Users, Cost Centers, Applications and other organizations that consumed them in a . . . • Fair • Understandable • Auditable/Reproducible, and • Easy to administer manner • Optimize IT costs through… • Costs trend identification • Real time analysis Tivoli Usage and Accounting Manager

  7. What is needed to perform Usage & Accounting?Three variables to the equation Capability Align IT Software Spending with Business Priorities Data collectors for IT infrastructure can review consumption across multiple dimensions Who is consuming which IT resources? Costing engine assigns cost to resource usage What is the cost of those resources, including those that are shared? Costing and reporting engine associates and report usage costs to consumers of IT resources How should IT allocate cost for chargeback, ROI, costing analysis, and reporting/billing? All three questions help align IT spending with business priorities Tivoli Usage and Accounting Manager

  8. An integral part of an organization’s financial reporting systems (Shared Services, Invoicing, Product Profitability, ERP Integration, Cost Allocations, Activity Based Costing, Resource & Cost Trending, etc.) Used across multiple platforms(Including Mainframe, Unix, Linux, Windows, etc.) Supporting multiple sub-systems (DB2, Oracle, SQL Server, CICS, Virtualization, Web, E-Mail, Networks, Storage, Print Servers, etc.) Internet enabled (Web-Based Reporting & Drill-Down and multiple outputs) IBM Tivoli Usage and Accounting Manager is … http://www-306.ibm.com/software/tivoli/products/usage-accounting/ http://www-306.ibm.com/software/tivoli/products/usage-accounting-zos/ Tivoli Usage and Accounting Manager

  9. What problem does TUAM solve?Inability to allocate IT costs, usage, and value Unix / Linux / Windows IT Departments contain many different platforms, environments, sub-systems, and users Mainframes • Costly to own, maintain, and operate • With unique record formats and metrics Storage & many other systems Databases & Networks Internet & E-Mail Tivoli Usage and Accounting Manager

  10. Increase Client (Business Units) Satisfaction Real Usage = Accurate Billing Accountability = Improved services Alignment between Business and IT costs Lower Infrastructure Cost Reduced server sprawl Higher utilization Rationalization of resources Continued Infrastructure Improvement Understanding costs can lead to managing costs Usage comparisons can lead to more effective investments Usage and accounting capabilities can help realize immediate benefits When running a business, nothing matters more than knowing how much something costs. You can’t manage what you don’t measure! Tivoli Usage and Accounting Manager

  11. Know what it costs – The TUAM funnel Tivoli Usage and Accounting Manager

  12. Costing Methods Supported -as described by Professor Brant Allen of the Colgate Darden School of Business at the University of Virginia. • No Charge Back • IT Department is overhead. • Overhead Allocation • Based on head count, assets, revenue, floor space, and so forth (not usage). • Memo Record Billing • We don't do this, but if we did.... • Classic Chargeback • End of Year Budget Charge...Zero Cost. • Break Even (Year End Adjustment) • Same as Classic except budgets are charged monthly... Zero Cost. • Budgeted Rates • See Rates for Year, Quarter, etc. • Standard Rates and Negotiated Prices • Similar to other inter-divisional accounting practices. Cost and price are two different things. The IT Department is run like a business. • Functional Pricing • Instead of CPU time, or disk usage, users are charged for functional items such as orders entered, claims processed, and checks written.
