Workforce Computing Total Cost of Ownership Tool

Author(s): Mark Tauschek, Michael Battista

Developing a workforce computing strategy involves many decisions: what devices will be purchased? What are your refresh cycles? Will stipends be provided for BYOD devices? How quickly will the transition to a post-PC world be made?  Use this tool to:

  • Calculate the TCO of a chosen strategy using a tool that is flexible enough to handle any device type or resource allocation strategy.
  • Compare two different scenarios over a three year period, varying the mix of devices, spending, and support.
  • Observe and manipulate an example scenario as a frame of reference for your own input.
