1 AaS 1.1 Knowing your Cost Shawn Arcus – Enterprise Data Center Manager Robert Rice – Vice President, Infrastructure & IT OPs
2 Data Center World – Certified Vendor Neutral Each presenter is required to certify that their presentation will be vendor-neutral. As an attendee you have a right to enforce this policy of having no sales pitch within a session by alerting the speaker if you feel the session is not being presented in a vendor neutral fashion. If the issue continues to be a problem, please alert Data Center World staff after the session is complete.
3 Session 2 - Knowing your Cost Prior to potentially changing any service model, it is wise to know your current internal cost, and which portions of that cost may be modified if the service model changes, including fluctuating and hidden costs.

5 Organization Overview St. Joseph Health (SJH) is an integrated Catholic health care delivery system sponsored by the St. Joseph Health Ministry. It is organized into three regions: Northern California Southern California West Texas/Eastern New Mexico SJH maintains a "continuum of care," matched to the diverse needs of the urban centers, smaller cities and rural communities who depend on us every day. SJH Core Statistics Facilities: 16 (California, Texas & New Mexico) Employees: 24,279 Total net revenue: $5 billion Total licensed beds: 4,149 Total discharges: 142,093 Total outpatient visits: 4,015,540 ED visits: 513,805 (non-admitted patients) Home Health visits: 264,753

10 True Costs of Infrastructure The buying decision must take the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) in to account—not just the initial purchasing budget—so that the best purchase choice for the organization can be made. Consider all OpEx costs before making a purchasing decision. Financial modeling of the TCO for various solutions under consideration should be utilized. Lower OpEx costs may more than make up for higher CapEx costs over the equipment production lifecycle. Purchasing decisions in the Data Center world must utilize the basic concept of total cost of ownership (TCO) – the sum of initial capital expenditures (CapEx) added to ongoing operational expenditures (OpEx). TCO is a critical metric when designing infrastructure and selecting equipment.
