The Spend Model dashboard provides a visual representation of how IT spend flows through the TBM taxonomy across Cost Pools, Towers, Solutions, and Consumers.
Using a Sankey diagram, the dashboard illustrates how spend is allocated and distributed across different technology and business layers, helping you understand relationships between operational costs, technology services, and business consumption.
Hovering over the diagram elements displays additional spend information and flow details for deeper analysis.
