At FinOps First, we believe that effective cloud cost management requires a combination of specialized tools and expert FinOps practitioners. That's why we offer a range of engagement models designed to help you get the most out of your cloud investment.
If you're looking to optimize your cloud spend, our Assess engagement model is the perfect place to start. We use a combination of first- and third-party tooling and Azure expertise to evaluate your cloud environment, establish a baseline FinOps maturity, and create a backlog of cost optimization opportunities. With a focus on short and long-term savings, our goal is to help you identify areas of waste and inefficiency and create a plan to address them.
Output includes a backlog of remediation tasks (categorized and prioritized), implementation of no/low impact remediation suggestions, governance and/or tagging strategy (optional), and other deliverable requirements as needed.
Our Establish engagement model is designed to help you establish a baseline FinOps practice while hitting some quick wins and achieving an immediate impact on savings. We'll build on the insights gained from the Assess model and help you set goals for FinOps maturity, establish a tagging and FinOps governance strategy, and explore options for cost visibility, reporting, and budgeting. With weekly check-ins and a focus on continuous improvement, we'll help you move from crawl to run and achieve sustainable savings over time.
Output includes a backlog of remediation tasks (categorized and prioritized), implementation of no/low impact remediation suggestions, governance and/or tagging strategy, plan through FinOps maturity, and weekly check-ins to ensure goals and plans are tracking in the right direction.
At FinOps First, we believe that FinOps is a journey, not a destination! Our Adopt and Grow engagement model is designed to help you establish a FinOps framework and culture, actively grow your practice, and realize the full potential of your cloud investment.

We will help you improve cost visibility, reporting, budgeting, and to build and maintain a team and strategy in which FinOps is a standard part of Cloud operations.
