ICT costs are not trivial; as well as the initial capital purchase and then operation support, you have the power and cooling to account for. In studies carried out across the UK and US, ICT has, time and again, been shown to consume up to 40% of the electrical power supplied to that business. In highly IT dependent organisations that cost has been shown to significantly higher, up to 70%.

How many websites tell you that your computers could be costing you hundreds of pounds a year or more to run?
There is a great deal of variance in the power consumption of ICT equipment. Two similar looking servers or desktop computers could have a power consumption variance factor of 10. So one could be costing 10 times more to run.
Application load factors significanty affect performance and power consumption. Two identical computers in different roles will have substantually different costs.
We are not going to estimate how much your equipment is costing you. We will work with you to understand exactly the cost.
