Questions:

  • Generally, Is Apptio considered a "Model"?  
  • Does anyone have any experience with Apptio vs. Risk Model?
    • If so, how did you satisfy your organization's model requirements? 
    • What level of documentation was required?

Note:

My firm considers an something a model when the following elements are met:

1.) The approach/method is quantitative in nature

2.) Uses statistical, economic, financial, or mathematical theories or techniques

3.) Contains assumptions (either quantitative or qualitative)

4.) Output is quantitative and contains uncertainty

Generically, "Apptio" is a software development company which publishes tools in support of the TBM, FinOps, and Tech Investment Planning & Management domains.

It's important to distinguish the specific product when categorizing/typing.

Apptio's "Costing" tool (previously known as "Cost Transparency") can absolutely be typed as a modeling tool. Their other tools...no.

Thank you for your question. Apptio is a tool that uses the TBM or Technology Business Management model. You can find more information here: https://www.tbmcouncil.org/learn-tbm/what-is-tbm/. Let me know if this answers your question or if I can help further. 

Thanks,
