Commercial Optimization
A significant opportunity to enhance cloud return on investment in a game of risk versus reward.
Problem
Whilst commercial optimiazation does not address cloud wastage, it delivers substantial value through two constructs: public and private commercial contracts. The challenge at scale of public commercial optimization is managing the recurring, centralized nature of these contracts. They are a traditional upfront agreement, on top of a consumption usage pattern. Making sure you reach risk appropriate coverage with a moving target is challenging, and needs constant time and attention.
Private commercial optimization requires specialized expertise and deep strategic alignment with your vendors. Whilst it is likely one of your largest financial agreements, it is opague, frustrating and time consuming. Balancing trust in the vendor with commercial interests is conflicting.
Old way
Traditionally vendors recommend managing public commitments centrally and from a risk perspective this is the right approach. The results however are underbaked agreements "just to be on the safe side". FinOps (financial operations) and procurement teams require countless team interactions, spend modelling with expensive recurring 3rd party tooling, and time consuming interactions with the vendor to get to these agreements.
