- 17. Downtime Cost
Downtime Illustration Example:
• File server failure at a 20-user law firm
– For eight hours, employees do not have access to
their client records, forms, document assembly and
case management resources
– The firm’s partners and associates have a typical
average utilization rate of 70% (billable time)
– During the course of this failure, they can only work
at 30% of the normal level of productivity
– Service provider begins remediation two hours after
failure
Copyright © 2008 – 2011 MyPcTeks Copyright © 2009 The IT Support Department, LLC. All rights reserved.
- 18. Downtime Cost
Downtime Illustration Example:
• Legal partners (4) bill themselves out at $250/hr
– Utilization rate = 70% so effective billing rate is $175/hr
• Associates (10) bill themselves out at $140/hr
– Effective billing rate = $98/hr
• Downtime Incident Cost Calculations:
– 6 hrs of technician time to fix the server: $600 (6%)
– 4 partners’ lost billing at 30% utilization: $3,920 (39%)
– 10 associates’ lost billing at 30% utilization: $5,488 (55%)
TOTAL COST OF DOWNTIME INCIDENT: $10,008(100%)
