With Apptio One, we provide IT cost transparency to the end users. We source different data from various sources and maintain them in backend tables. We then perform transformations to align the data, create model allocations, and generate reports. The main use cases we receive involve obtaining application total cost of ownership (TCO). For example, if you are a CFO and want to know how much your business unit is incurring in costs, we have reports that provide the cost associated with the business unit as well as the budget and forecast. The primary use case involves comparing the budget and forecast with your actuals to understand how much you are incurring for a particular business unit. If you want to drill down further to see what services a business unit consumes, that information is available. Underneath the services, you can also view how much a particular application or project has been used. You can obtain all these levels of granular details, and underneath the application, you can see infrastructure-related items including servers, compute, and hardware. You can see what things are being used and how much employees are related to each of these components.
