Information technology (IT) costs

IT costs encompass a broad array of expenditures, many of which are essential to business operations. One way of controlling IT costs without sacrificing growth or service quality is by determining an optimized service delivery structure and process and assessing what elements can be outsourced. Another path is to create price signals, such as chargebacks, to internal consumers of IT services.
