What is TBM?

Technology Business Management (TBM) is a discipline that improves business outcomes by giving organizations a consistent way to connect business value to technology investments. It is backed by a standardized taxonomy that enables IT, finance, and business leaders to react quickly to changing market dynamics and optimally leverage cloud and agile practices to deliver on business objectives.

History of the TBM Council

The TBM Council was born out of Apptio's biannual TBM Summits—where many CIOs, including members of the founding Board of Directors, expressed the need for an independently governed peer community of TBM practitioners. Founded in 2012 as a nonprofit business entity led by an independent board of business technology leaders, the TBM Council is focused on improving business outcomes by giving technology, finance, and business leaders a consistent way to translate technology investments to business value through Education, Standards, and Collaboration.
