Systems and methods for providing a cost estimate for a data processing system are provided. An exemplary method may include selecting application programs from a set of application programs, wherein each application program may have a number of objects. The method may further include entering data descriptive of a load profile, retrieving a set of sizing coefficients for each object of the selected application programs, and estimating the hardware requirements for each one of the objects of the selected application programs by entering the sizing coefficients and the load profile into a sizing model. The method may further include entering the hardware requirements for each one of the objects of the selected application programs into a cost estimation component to provide a cost estimate for each one of the program objects of the selected application programs. The method may further include calculating a total hardware requirement by adding the hardware requirements, and calculating the total cost estimate for the data processing system by adding the cost estimates for each object of the selected application programs.
