If I were on the team for value analysis of purchasing a new computer application, some questions I would raise include how often would the application be utilized/needed, long-term cost and savings, how many people are required to use it, the cost of implementation, delivery, and setup, the cost of user training, and what alternative systems exist for a price and function comparison. By considering all these aspects, you can develop an idea of the necessity of the application and what it would take to pay for and use it over time. Careful consideration ensures that you aren’t paying for an application that isn’t necessary or too expensive to outweigh the benefits.
