Many organizations struggle to clearly understand IT costs, limiting decision-making and alignment with business priorities. The core issue is not a lack of data but the absence of a shared language across IT and finance in complex, fragmented environments. Establishing a unified approach enables better governance, stronger collaboration, and more strategic, trust-driven decisions.​

Arrow, Matter + Energy, and IDC will explore how leading organizations are gaining real clarity over their IT spend and turning cost transparency into a strategic capability:

  • Quantify the real business impact of poor IT cost visibility: from delayed decisions to lost trust with leadership
  • Learn why common approaches, from spreadsheets to point FinOps tools, often break under real-world pressures like audits, mergers, or leadership change
  • Understand how leading organizations are using a unified taxonomy to create a shared language across IT, Finance, and the business
  • See how a TBM-based approach enables faster, defensible answers, clearer cost allocation, and stronger governance

In this session, you’ll gain a clear, practical view of how to move beyond fragmented cost models toward a scalable, standardized approach that stands up to CFO and board scrutiny.
