Cloud Cost Optimisation

Cut unnecessary spend. Increase efficiency. Stay in control.

Let's talk Cloud

Reduce Cloud Costs And Enable Business Agility

Cloud costs can spiral quickly – and without clear visibility, it’s hard to know where your budget is going or how to rein it in.

Our Cloud Cost Optimisation service helps you reduce wasted spend, improve cost visibility, and implement sustainable governance across your organisation – all without compromising performance.

We Reduced Spend By 30% A Month On Cloud Costs

We helped a large public sector organisation reduce their monthly cloud costs from $400,000 to $280,000, while improving visibility and educating teams on best practices.

Why Invest in Cloud Cost Optimisation?

If your organisation is facing any of these challenges, you’re not alone:

  • Escalating Cloud Costs – Budgets are being exceeded, and costs are difficult to predict.
  • Lack of Cost Visibility – Difficulty in identifying who owns which cloud costs, or how spend is distributed across teams, services, or regions.
  • Inefficient Cost Management – Unused or over-provisioned resources leading to waste.
  • No Centralised Cost Strategy – Cloud costs spread across multiple providers or accounts with no standardised approach to tracking or managing spend.
  • Challenges in Rightsizing Workloads – Poorly optimised workloads that don’t align with actual business needs.

Our Approach – Understanding Your Business Goals

We don’t just cut costs. Our Digital Solutions team align your cloud strategy with business goals.

Visibility vs Control

Is the issue that cloud is too expensive and you can see the problem, or is it that costs are untracked and unclear?

Cloud Costs

Are cloud costs spread across multiple teams, services, or platforms without a unified view?

Business Priorities

Do costs need to be optimised due to budget pressures, or is the focus on making cloud spend more predictable and accountable?

Capabilities and Practices

We structure our approach around Capabilities (what the business needs to be able to do) and Practices (how those capabilities are implemented).

This ensures that cost optimisation efforts align with long-term business goals rather than just being short-term cost-cutting exercises.

Our approach is geared towards ensuring measurable progress and establishing clear KPIs of success, allowing businesses to track the impact of cost optimisation initiatives over time.

Capabilities

High-level outcomes such as “We can allocate cloud costs accurately across our organisation.”

Practices

The specific implementations, which may be common across businesses (e.g., a centralised tagging strategy with Terraform modules) or tailored to the client’s needs.

How It Works

Cloud Cost Assessment and Remediation Plan

A focused engagement to identify cost inefficiencies and create a targeted optimisation plan.
At the end of this engagement, we deliver:

  • A Report on Areas of Concern & Improvement – A detailed breakdown of cost inefficiencies and key risks.
  • A Prioritised List of Remedial Actions – Clear, actionable steps to address cloud cost inefficiencies, ranked by impact and business priority.
  • Defined Ownership Assignments – Assigning cost responsibility to individuals, teams, or business units.
  • A Delivery Plan – A structured approach to implementing the recommendations, with timelines and measurable success criteria.

Ongoing Cloud Cost and Delivery Support

As digital solution delivery experts, we don’t just advise on cloud cost strategy – we help organisations execute their long-term optimisation plans. Our flexible engagement model enables you to implement and refine cloud cost strategy over time.

  • Collaborative implementation – Supporting teams in delivering the remediation plan.
  • Embedding FinOps practices – Helping teams integrate cost governance into daily operations.
  • Technical execution – Working alongside engineering teams to implement automation, rightsizing, and efficiency improvements.
  • Ongoing strategy refinement – Reviewing progress, identifying new cost-saving opportunities, and adjusting the delivery approach as needed.

Common Questions

Do you only work with certain cloud providers?
No – we work across AWS, Azure, GCP, and hybrid environments.

What if our cloud environment is complex?
That’s exactly when to bring us in. We specialise in untangling complexity.

Do we need a FinOps team already?
Not at all. We’ll help you build cost governance into your existing setup.

Can you help us implement changes too?
Yes – we offer hands-on delivery support, not just recommendations.
