Results
identified cost savings worth 43% of annual spend
Within just three weeks, the engagement identified 43% in potential savings, including 16% that could be realised immediately by addressing orphaned resources and optimising virtual machines without any design changes. A further 27% was achievable within three months through rightsizing and re-tiering. To ensure lasting impact, KPI dashboards were created for leadership to track progress, and a FinOps maturity assessment was conducted to establish a long-term savings and governance strategy.
The engagement began with a Cloud Cost Allocation Audit to understand which resources were being used, their purpose, and who was accountable for them. Using Optimus, the team analysed around 27,000 Azure resources in less than 48 hours, producing detailed insights that guided next steps. A tailored KPI dashboard was then developed to give leadership visibility into key cost drivers, while a FinOps maturity assessment outlined the broader capabilities required for long-term governance and optimisation. Finally, a tagging strategy was published for the engineering team to ensure accurate allocation and ongoing cost transparency.
