DCMA has a duty to spend taxpayer money wisely while keeping the
infrastructure running on a daily basis, and VMware Infrastructure allows
us to do that,” said Mike Williams, CIO at DCMA. “Virtualization is a key
component of our data center strategy and a cost-efficient way for us to
accommodate agency growth without requiring additional data center space.”

An article discussing how vmware is being used in the government sector, in this case the Defence Contract Management Agency, nice to see the tools in use and delivering to the end user.

Consolidation and virtualization carried out together can save significant amounts of money in direct (power/cooling/support contract costs), and indirect costs like internal support  costs or even the ability to deliver a server/service in a quicker amount of time – the time to deploy a virtual server should be less than a physical server if you consider the racking, patching and space allocation.
