English term or phrase:missed opportunity cost
Beschreibung der Nachteile eines herkömmlichen Systems zur Prozesssteuerung:
"Moreover, using different types of controllers, different software tools, and different programming languages all increase your costs. Then add the cost of maintaining specialized knowledge, additional training, increased downtime, dependence on the creators of custom code, and the missed opportunity cost, and you realize the effect this has on your bottom line."
Explanation: Ich denke, dass es sich um ein 'doppelt gemoppelt' im Text handelt und das 'missed' zuviel ist, denn: die 'opportunity cost' sind doch schon Kosten die durch entgangenen Nutzen von Kapital für andere Zwecke entstehen (Quelle: Zahn, 4th edition: Business Glossary)
