Validate these benefits through 3 rd -party sources and client case studies 3.Break the analysis into manageable pieces, don’t try to do it all at once (ex. site segmentation) 4.Use a financial model that properly allocates the costs/benefits over the term of the analysis and applies fundamental financial principles 5.Run multiple what-if scenarios to determine range of potential outcomes (sensitivity analysis)

XML TRC Case Application (!) Notes: The ROI project team made a judgement call that, even though the productivity of Cisco employees is undeniably increased through the use of Cisco’s Unified Messaging (UM) and Personal Assistant (PA) applications, the benefits modelling process would be unacceptably vague because the associated business processes and policies are not yet defined (e.g. incurring a GSM call to have PA speak e-mail over the phone) This situation will change once the new business processes surrounding UM and PA are defined. Productivity benefits of CTI applications are substantial because they emulate those of agents at large, CTI-enabled call centres yet can be implemented at a fraction of the cost Benefits of XML applications are actually small for Cisco because almost all Cisco employees have laptops and ubiquitous access to the Web. Organisations that are not in this same situation will most likely benefit more than Cisco due to not having to provide a PC to all employees Unified Messaging & Personal Assistant (!) $???k Total Recurring $1.1+ m

All rights reserved. 64 6426_10_2002_c1_Kisch What the Analysts Are Saying About CNIC End-users have told us again and again that identifying the bottom-line benefit when evaluating new technologies is a priority given today’s soft economic climate. Effective ROI tools can serve as a key element to the sales process because the offer the means for customers to measure the actual long-term value of new technologies like IP Communications. Cisco’s Converged Network Investment Calculator (CNIC) is an elegant response that can play a very meaningful role in persuading customer to invest in a new Cisco technology.” Ken Presti IDC “The most common complaints customers have about ROI calculators are that they are too Optimistic. Cisco Converged Network Investment Calculator (CNIC) addresses the potential for overly Optimistic ROI calculations by letting users enter in their own assumptions –from productivity gains to wiring drop Cost estimates. Building useful ROI tools is difficult. They have to be detailed enough to yield meaningful results that are tailored To each customers unique situation, yet simple enough to make it usable. CNIC is a comprehensive calculator that considers very detailed Aspects of the real-world costs of IP Telephony.” Kathryn Korostoff President Sage Research
