1. A method for identifying network data processing systems, the method comprising:
- identifying, by a processor unit, a first number of attributes corresponding to an in-house network data processing system;
identifying, by the processor unit, a second number of attributes corresponding to a third party managed network data processing system, wherein the third party managed network data processing system includes hardware structural changes to the in-house network data processing system, and wherein the first number of attributes and the second number of attributes are selected from at least one of time-to-value that is a measure of a time when a value of a change to a particular network data processing system is achieved, risk mitigation that is a measure of an ability to reduce risks associated with the change to the particular network data processing system, cost savings that is a measure of costs associated with the particular network data processing system as compared to costs associated with a current network data processing system, and coverage that is a measure of a range of processes covered by the particular network data processing system in achieving a particular goal for the particular network data processing system;
displaying, on a display device, a graphical user interface with a graphical representation of a visual comparison of the first number of attributes corresponding to the in-house network data processing system and the second number of attributes corresponding to the third party managed network data processing system and with a number of hardware products that structurally changes the in-house network data processing system to the third party managed network data processing system, wherein a first number of values for the first number of attributes and a second number of values for the second number of attributes are displayed in the graphical user interface on a radar plot having a center with values increasing away from the center for the graphical representation of the visual comparison of the first number of attributes and the second number of attributes; and
responsive to a selection of a hardware product in the number of hardware products displayed in the graphical user interface, displaying, on the display device, a technical specification document regarding a selected hardware product that structurally changes the in-house network data processing system to the third party managed network data processing system.

Abstract
Identifying changes between network data processing systems is provided. A first number of attributes for a network data processing system are identified by a processor unit. A second number of attributes for a number of potential network data processing systems are identified by the processor unit. A graphical user interface with a graphical representation of a comparison of the first number of attributes and the second number of attributes is displayed on a display device.
