Where they started
The organization knew what it spent on technology, but not what each part of the business consumed.
What we did
- Cost model. Mapped spend from the ledger to services, and to the parts of the business that use them.
- Reconciliation. Tied the model to the general ledger, so the total matched finance’s.
- Showback. Published what each business unit consumes, using drivers leaders could understand and influence.
What changed
A cost picture finance recognized, and conversations about technology demand grounded in what that demand actually costs.
