more on IT services than manufacturing or construction companies do.<\/p>\n<p>However, determining a company\u2019s IT budget isn\u2019t just a question of figuring out how much to spend in total. It also involves deciding how to allocate the funds most effectively.<\/p>\n<p>Several factors such as the state of your equipment (computers, servers, software, etc.) and your strategic objectives (automating tasks, enabling work from home, transitioning to cloud computing, etc.) should be taken into account in order to invest the right amounts in the right places.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the different types of expenses that can be included in an IT budget and a typical example of how the funds may be allocated:<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"307\"><strong>Types of expenses<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"307\"><strong>% of the IT budget<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"307\">IT infrastructure(Equipment, hosting, etc.)<\/td>\n<td width=\"307\">34%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"307\">Staff(Internal, external, etc.)<\/td>\n<td width=\"307\">31%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"307\">Software(Acquisition, subscriptions, etc.)<\/td>\n<td width=\"307\">20%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"307\">Other<\/td>\n<td width=\"307\">15%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2>Pitfalls to avoid when developing an IT budget<\/h2>\n<p>The number one pitfall to avoid when developing an IT budget is the temptation to save money by underspending on equipment or technical support. This impulse can actually cost more in the long term.<\/p>\n<p>For example, inexpensive computers can have a multitude of problems such as short lifespans, limited warranties, and incompatibility with certain <a href=\"https:\/\/edu.gcfglobal.org\/en\/computerbasics\/understanding-operating-systems\/1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">operating systems<\/a>. When all of this is considered, they may end up costing more than you think.<\/p>\n<p>Even if you invest in top-quality equipment, you will need experienced people to manage your IT infrastructure in order to get the most out of it. These professionals take care of security and technical updates, fix problems, configure systems, manage users and set up online backups. Technical support is an essential aspect of IT that must not be neglected!<\/p>\n<h2>Groupe SL can help you determine your IT budget<\/h2>\n<p>Determining a company\u2019s IT budget is not to be taken lightly.
