Total Cost of Ownership & Opportunity Analysis
Course Description
• Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and Opportunity Analysis (OA) are valuable strategic tools for unpacking key cost elements and resources to drive sourcing initiatives, together with the appropriate allocation of assets.

About the Workshop


Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) analysis uncovers all of the lifetime costs that follow
from owning assets. Opportunity Analysis (OA) identifies methods for capturing value
through sourcing.
The central aim of effective strategic procurement is to satisfy business needs and, at the
same time, provide value for money. In order to meet this aim, it is first necessary to
understand the needs, establish all the costs associated with satisfying such needs over
time and ensure the best use of financial assets and other pertinent resources for
achieving this goal.
This five-day workshop includes case studies and worked examples, as delegates explore
how to understand and break down asset ownership cost elements and how to best
optimize the allocation of assets to extract maximum value from sourcing, including:
• Demand management
• Budgeting and planning
• Prioritizing asset purchase proposals
• Evaluating project proposals
• Capturing value through sourcing
• Asset life cycle management.
