What we do

FinOps & Cost Management

Find out where the Azure bill is actually going, then change the things that move it: commitment coverage, waste, licensing position.

  • CAF: Govern, Manage
  • WAF: Cost Optimisation

The problem

Azure cost work usually stops at a dashboard nobody opens. Real reduction needs a tagging model finance recognises, commitment coverage reviewed on a cadence, and someone empowered to switch things off. Until then the bill is a number you explain rather than one you control.

You probably need this if

  • The monthly Azure bill goes up and the explanation is always the same shrug
  • Nobody can attribute spend to a cost centre without a spreadsheet and a guess
  • Reservation and savings plan coverage was set once and has not been reviewed since
  • Finance asks what it will cost next quarter and the honest answer is roughly this, probably

Recognise more than one of those? A CAF readiness assessment gives you a baseline in three to four weeks, before you commit to anything longer.

What the service covers

  • Tagging and showback model mapped to your cost centres, enforced by policy at deployment
  • Reservation and savings plan coverage analysis, reviewed quarterly against actual usage
  • Rightsizing and orphaned-resource sweeps: unattached disks, idle gateways, over-provisioned App Service plans
  • Azure Hybrid Benefit and licensing position review, which is where the largest single savings usually sit
  • Budgets and anomaly alerting routed to the team that can act, not to a shared mailbox
  • Monthly cost review with variance explained against forecast

Can you say which team spent the largest single amount last month?

Most estates cannot, and that is the whole problem in one question. Book a 30-minute call, bring last month's Cost Analysis export, and we will find the commitment coverage gap.
