By linking cost to cost drivers, types and places we can provide detailed information as well as high level aggregated views.  Cost drivers are linked to services defined in the IT Service Portfolio. Cost types will provide information on the cost split between hardware, software, services and labour. Cost places represent the organizational entities that are accountable for supply and or demand of IT services.
