ABSTRACT

The crucial role of the finances in IT is the reason a new stage is introduced in the

analysis scheme. Because the most financially concentrated asset in every organiza-

tion is the data center, a standardized method to measure the total cash outlay for

its physical infrastructure is in high demand. Companies can get more purchasing

power and preserve cash for operational issues by designing IT budgets, identifying

IT budget items, developing appropriate pricing strategies, and implementing and

operating financial management. Effective management of the power utilized is an

essential part of an enterprise’s economic policy. This chapter focuses on presenting

the financial, economic and environmental stages in the analysis process. The first

analysis was presented in [63].
