Cloud Cost Optimisation (FinOps)
Cut run-rate without breaking delivery. We combine usage analysis with engineering changes that stick.
- Typical outcomes: –20% to –40% run-rate; clearer unit costs.
- What we do: rightsizing, reservations/commit plans, storage tiering, auto-scale, guardrails.
- Deliverables: savings plan, change PRs/policies, tracked-savings dashboard.
- Timeline: 2–6 weeks for first savings; continuous thereafter.
Cloud Migration & Modernisation
Move apps and data with confidence. Establish landing zones, modernise where it pays, and keep rollback paths.
- What we do: Azure/AWS landing zones, refactor or re-platform, data moves, cutover plans.
- Deliverables: migration plan, IaC, smoke tests, runbooks, rollback strategy.
- Risk reduction: staged releases, environment parity, defined change windows.
M&A / Due Diligence
We support buy-side and sell-side with pragmatic due diligence and post-deal integration across technology, IT operations, business processes, and the operating model.
What we do
- Technical diligence: architecture & scalability review, reliability & security posture, cost/perf baselines, vendor lock-in risk.
- IT operations: tooling & contracts inventory, SRE/ITIL maturity, incident/change practices, runbooks, observability.
- Process & org: team structure, skills/matrix, RACI, delivery flow (lead time, deploy freq, MTTR), ways of working.
- Synergy & integration: platform consolidation (identity, CI/CD, monitoring, ITSM), tool rationalisation, license clean-up.
- Separation & TSA: carve-out plans, data & access separation, interim controls, exit from Transition Service Agreements.
- Risk & compliance: ISO 27001 alignment, data locality/sovereignty, regulatory considerations.
Deliverables
- Red-flags report with severity & remediation options.
- 100-day plan with owners, milestones, and measurable outcomes.
- System & contract inventory (source of truth) and synergy tracker.
- Target operating model (roles, RACI, on-call, SLAs/SLOs).
- Integration architecture and carve-out/TSA playbooks as needed.
Typical timeline
- DD window: 1–3 weeks (rapid assessment, red flags).
- Integration wave 1: 6–12 weeks (tooling & platform consolidation).
- Stabilisation & value realisation: quarterly waves thereafter.
Automation & DevOps (CI/CD, IaC)
Ship faster and safer with pipelines, infrastructure as code, and policy-as-code baked in.
- What we do: CI/CD pipelines, Terraform/Ansible, golden images, policy-as-code, secrets/identity.
- Deliverables: repo templates, pipelines, reusable modules, docs.
- Impact: fewer manual steps, consistent environments, shorter lead time.
Managed Cloud Operations
Right-sized support from 8×5 to 24×7. Clear SLAs, real runbooks, and incident/change processes that reduce noise.
- Scope: monitoring, alert tuning, incident & change, patching, capacity & cost checks.
- Deliverables: SLO/SLA definitions, on-call rota, dashboards, monthly reports.
- Onboarding: discovery, access, observability baseline, runbook creation.
Security & Compliance (ISO 27001-aligned)
Practical hardening and identity controls with evidence you can hand to auditors.
- What we do: hardening baselines, IAM, network segmentation, logging, vulnerability mgmt.
- Deliverables: policies, architecture notes, control matrix, remediation backlog.
- Outcome: reduced blast radius, fewer critical findings, clearer accountability.
EU-Sovereign / Hybrid
Data-locality and exit plans across Azure/AWS plus OpenStack/VMware/Azure Local options—without sacrificing developer speed.
- What we do: architecture, landing zones, interconnect, portability patterns, cost/perf models.
- Deliverables: reference designs, IaC modules, runbooks, exit/portability plan.
- Who it’s for: regulated or privacy-sensitive workloads and EU-focused teams.
