Technology Business Management (TBM) aligns cost to IT services to improve delivery and efficiency, meaning this framework can be leveraged successfully amongst Executive Leadership across agencies. TBM will ultimately empower agency CIOs to better understand and communicate the business and mission value of IT spending to senior executives, mission support offices, and program managers.
The Federal Technology Investment Management (FTIM) CoP, in collaboration with the GSA Office of Government-wide Policy (OGP), has developed an informative guide, Meeting IT Priorities with TBM , to illustrate how IT Cost Transparency can be enhanced through the TBM framework.
