![Page 16: A CFO's Guide to Understanding the Black Box of IT](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062406/55cd1c9cbb61ebb9568b4588/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
TBM Best PracticesIT Cost Transparency
Integrate financial, operational, and billing data with IT asset and operations data from your management system.
![Page 17: A CFO's Guide to Understanding the Black Box of IT](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062406/55cd1c9cbb61ebb9568b4588/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
TBM Best PracticesBudgeting, Forecasting and Planning
Eliminate static spreadsheets and utilize a single system of record designed specifically for IT. Consider third party and cloud-services, ongoing labor management, service innovation, consolidation, and retirement.
![Page 18: A CFO's Guide to Understanding the Black Box of IT](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062406/55cd1c9cbb61ebb9568b4588/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
TBM Best PracticesBenchmarking
Benchmark the total costs of IT products and services rigorously against industry peers and organizations of similar size, as well as internally between and across business units.

TBM Best PracticesOptimize for Efficiency and Performance
Integrate the total cost of IT products with quality of service information. True process integration maximizes ROI and drives down unit rates.

TBM Best PracticesConsiderations When Selecting a TBM Provider
Does the vendor offer other non-TBM product suites that might result in a conflict of interest or favoritism?
Is the solution cloud-based with adaptive data management?
Does the solution provide standardized cost, IT taxonomy, and KPI model – best practice allocation and calculation logic?
Does the vendor provide third party validation?
Does the vendor adhere to best practices and methodology?
