Package 5
FinOps assessment
Consumption, allocation to projects and departments, unit cost per user/customer/transaction – and AI cost (FinOps for AI). Not just cuts: control.
See what's included
Who it is for
Organisations that want control of cloud and licence cost – not just lower cost. The value lies as often in correct allocation as in cuts: who and what drives the cost, how it is split across projects, initiatives and departments – and what the unit cost is per user, per customer, per transaction. Sometimes the recommendation is to spend more, for example on stronger licences where the risk warrants it.
What we assess
- Consumption analysis – Azure consumption and M365/software licences
- Allocation model – cost split across projects, initiatives and departments (showback)
- Unit cost – cost per user, per customer, per transaction where data exists
- Recommendations – reduction, reallocation and deliberate increases where needed
- Basis for budget, forecast and financial governance of technology cost
- AI cost – spend on AI services and models, unit cost per use case and a basis for prioritisation (FinOps for AI)
