Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) is a calculation designed to help companies assess both direct and indirect costs associated with an application - for example a SAP platform.
A Return on Investment (ROI) calculation or the TCO analysis on which it is based provide decision support for executives.
This includes:
- hardware
- licenses
- hardware and software maintenance
- administration
- training
- staff
The objective of the calculation is the analysis of direct and indirect costs with respect to the intended use of the respective components. This allows for the determination and identification of visible and hidden costs before an investment decision is made.
Especially in times of tightening budgets for IT operations and staff, it is of significant financial importance to assess costs and benefits by conducting a TCO analysis.
