Stop Overpaying for Cloud. Start Getting Value From Every Dollar.
A structured cloud cost optimisation programme — spend audit, right-sizing, reserved instance strategy, waste elimination, and ongoing FinOps governance.
The average organisation wastes 30–35% of its cloud spend. Reserved instances go unpurchased. Development resources run through weekends. Oversized instances run at 10% utilisation. Storage buckets accumulate data that nobody uses. None of this is visible without someone looking for it.
Cloudpire FinOps engagements begin with a complete cloud spend audit — we identify waste, under-utilisation, savings plan opportunities, and architectural decisions that are costing more than they should. We then implement a structured optimisation programme and establish the governance practices that prevent waste from accumulating again.
FinOps is not a tool purchase. It is an operational discipline — a continuous practice of cost visibility, allocation accountability, and optimisation. We build this discipline into your team, not just your cloud account.
What You Get
How We Work
Spend Audit
We pull and analyse all billing data to understand your current spend by service, account, region, and team.
Waste Identification
We identify unused, underutilised, and over-provisioned resources — typically finding 25–40% in immediate savings opportunities.
Optimisation Plan
We produce a prioritised optimisation plan with effort/impact analysis for each recommendation.
Implementation
We implement agreed optimisations, purchase reserved capacity, and configure automated rightsizing where appropriate.
Governance Setup
We establish the tagging standards, cost allocation model, and review cadence that prevent waste from returning.
How Engagements Work
We believe in transparency about process even when price is agreed in conversation.
Fixed-fee, defined scope
Every engagement begins with a scoped proposal — a clear statement of what will be delivered, by when, and for a fixed fee. No hourly billing, no scope creep surprises.
Right-sized for mid-market
Our engagements are designed for organisations that need genuine expertise but are not running enterprise procurement cycles. Senior-level delivery without enterprise-level overhead.
Outcomes, not outputs
We define success in business terms before work begins — not in deliverables, but in the specific outcome those deliverables are meant to achieve.
FinOps engagements are typically self-funding within 30 days. The savings identified in the initial audit almost always exceed the cost of the engagement — often within the first month of implementation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most organisations see measurable cost reduction within 30 days of the initial optimisation implementation.
In our experience, manual optimisation without a structured FinOps programme still leaves significant savings on the table — particularly in reserved instance strategy and architecture-level decisions.
Yes. FinOps sits at the intersection of engineering and finance, and we engage both teams throughout the programme.
Yes. Ongoing FinOps governance — monthly cost reviews, anomaly detection, and optimisation recommendations — is available as a monthly retainer.
