COST06-03 Tracking and Monitoring the Usage of Special Offerings

  • Risk level

    Low

  • Key strategies

    After purchasing special offerings, such as resource packages, you should track their usage regularly. If a resource package is about to expire or has been used up, renew it in a timely manner. If the resource package coverage is low, purchase more resource packages. If the resource package utilization is low, purchase a resource package of a proper size upon expiration to avoid waste.
