How fast can we see results?
Package A is designed to deliver visibility and quick wins within 2 weeks. Foundation and Guardrails projects typically run 2–8 weeks depending on scope and approvals.
Do you guarantee savings?
No. We identify opportunities, estimate impact, and implement with approval. Actual savings depend on your usage patterns, constraints, and what changes get approved.
What access do you need? Can we start read-only?
Yes. We can start with read-only billing/cost access. Implementation work uses a phased access model and follows least privilege.
Do you use native tools or third-party platforms?
We can work with AWS/Azure native tooling and your existing stack. If you already use a FinOps platform, we'll plug into it instead of replacing it.
Who does the work—advice only or implementation?
This is managed services. We don't just hand you a report. We implement changes with your approval, and we keep a backlog moving month to month.
Will you touch production?
Not on day one. We avoid blanket production write access. When production changes are needed, we follow a phased access + approvals approach.
How do you handle approvals and change management?
We define a lightweight change process (who approves what, when), and we route changes through your preferred method (PR approvals, change tickets, or both).
Can you work with our existing Terraform and GitHub Actions?
Yes. Package B is explicitly designed to integrate with existing repos, pipelines, and environment promotion patterns.
What does the monthly report include?
Spend and variance, directional forecast, savings shipped, top drivers, exceptions list, and a prioritized backlog with owners and next actions.
Contract terms—how do we start?
Start with a triage call. Most teams begin with Package A (reset) or Offer D (foundation), then move to Package C to keep things operating.
