ComSci's Budget Forecaster automates the IT budget process, improves analytics and provides total control over IT cost drivers through dynamic management of monthly salary planning, supply chain and project spending. Attendees will learn how Budget Forecaster automates the IT budgeting process, integrates with all corporate financial systems, and performs detailed variance analysis.

ComSci will also showcase its BillBrowser™ module, which assists IT organizations in achieving total technology cost, capacity and utilization transparency. The increased visibility provided by BillBrowser supports more productive dialogue with IT consumers and, as a result, better cost control. Visitors will also see firsthand how this solution delivers ComSci's web-based CIO Invoice™ report to promote IT cost transparency and help organizations more efficiently manage demand, support collaboration across the organization, and institute accurate chargeback initiatives to communicate the value of IT.

Said Bob Svec, CEO, ComSci, "Today's IT organizations need to do more than demonstrate lower base costs; they need to effectively communicate the value of IT and help business managers make informed technology decisions that enhance the business strategy. An IT financial and business management solution helps business management understand the true cost and utilization of technology as well as the savings and opportunities across different deployment scenarios. We look forward to demonstrating how our innovative IT financial and business management solutions can bring discipline to IT financial management and create a competitive advantage."
