Sustainability
• To ensure that consideration of the total life-time cost of ICT is embedded into an institution’s financial and strategic planning
• To support schools in maximising their return on investment through the provision of practical tools
6
What is TCO?
• All the costs associated with ICT infrastructure and use
• Visible costs– hardware, software, training, maintenance
• Invisible costs– staff self support
– management overheads
– time lost due to problems
7
Becta TCO methodology
• Objectives
– To examine and compare the total cost and effectiveness of different approaches to providing, supporting and maintaining ICT infrastructure
– To develop the methodology
– To provide a tool to assist school leaders in quantifying the total costs of sustaining an ICT infrastructure

The impact of different models of technical support on TCO
• Technical support24 schools in 4 categories
• In-house support• Cluster support• Supplier contracted support• LEA contracted support
• Future work– Development of online TCO tool to record, compare and
model costs– Development for use in the FE sector
