Defining IT financial management
Forrester defines IT financial management as:
The discipline of planning, budgeting, monitoring, and
controlling the use of a firm's total IT budget
(operations/maintenance and new projects/investments).
IT financial management software provides an application that allows companies to support and automate the process of IT financial management. This is done by applying general cost accounting principles to IT.

IT financial management – Why now?
IT users and IT departments are experiencing an accelerating need for IT financial management because:
• Cloud & virtualization are driving additional IT adoption at a rapid rate
• Business units are demanding IT cost visibility and predictability
• Profit pressures demand businesses to manage IT cost vs. business performance tradeoffs and alternatives like never before
• IT process maturity (e.g. ITIL) has moved many IT organizations from a chaotic to a stable state so they are now better prepared to add IT financial discipline
• Data availability and accuracy (through discovery) has improved greatly
