Cloud spending without discipline becomes cloud waste. We help organizations implement a FinOps foundation that connects engineering, finance, and leadership, enabling scalable, cost-efficient, and accountable cloud operations.
Objectives
The objective of the FinOps Foundation & Cost Optimization Framework is to:
- Bring visibility and accountability to cloud spending.
- Reduce waste and overprovisioning without compromising performance.
- Establish long-term practices that align financial governance with engineering workflows.
FinOps Maturity Assessment
We start by understanding your current state:
- Cloud cost visibility and reporting
- Existing tagging, billing, and budgeting setup
- Departmental ownership and accountability gaps
- Tooling (e.g., native billing consoles, dashboards, 3rd party tools)
Most organizations underestimate how much is invisible — and therefore uncontrollable.
Optimization Framework
We design and help implement a FinOps operating model that includes:
- Cost allocation strategies (by team, environment, service)
- Tagging frameworks and policy enforcement
- Budget alerts and anomaly detection
- Usage analysis (idle resources, overprovisioned instances, scaling inefficiencies)
- Commitment management (e.g., RI/CUD strategies)
Cross-Team Enablement
FinOps is a shared responsibility, we facilitate alignment between:
- Engineering: clarity on costs and impact of architectural decisions
- Finance: predictable, reportable spending aligned with business goals
- Leadership: dashboards that connect usage to value
We can optionally conduct workshops or documentation handoff sessions to ensure knowledge is transferred.
Deliverables
You’ll receive a tailored FinOps package including:
- FinOps maturity report
- Optimization roadmap (quick wins and long-term opportunities)
- Cost tagging strategy and templates
- Budget and alerting configuration guide
- Customizable dashboards (e.g., AWS Cost Explorer, GCP Billing, or third-party tools)
- Optional: collaborative session with Engineering + Finance
Strategic Impact
- 20–40% potential cost savings through optimization
- Shared language between finance and tech
- Proactive financial governance for cloud at scale
- Foundation for growth without losing control
Cloud efficiency isn’t about cutting, it’s about aligning. FinOps gives your organization the tools to spend with purpose, track with precision, and grow without surprise.
