Organizations have moved beyond simple scripting to focus on speed and impact, using automation to power growth and reduce risk. But a critical gap remains: visibility. How do you, as a business leader, prove the return on investment (ROI) and confidently decide where to invest your next dollar? Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation dashboard and analytics feature is more than an IT report; it's the financial and operational intelligence layer executives need to realize the full value of enterprise automation. Automation is a cost center until its value is quantifiable. The automation dashboard bridges that gap, converting technical wins—like time saved and job completion rates—into clear financial data. Demonstrate financial impact: No longer guess at ROI. The platform translates key metrics into reportable savings and ROI. This data enables clear reporting to leadership and key stakeholders, elevating automation from isolated IT tools into a mission-critical business asset. Prioritize with the savings planner: Looking ahead is equally as important as current reporting. The savings planner forecasts cost and time savings for potential tasks over the next 1 to 3 years. By prioritizing efforts that deliver maximum financial return, your automation roadmap can align with your business objectives.
