Cloud & FinOps Advisory

OnPoint Advisory helps organisations control cloud spend through FinOps operating models, cloud cost assessments, commitment optimisation, allocation, forecasting and governance.

Control cloud spend without slowing innovation.

Cloud gives organisations speed and flexibility, but without the right financial controls it can also create avoidable waste, unclear ownership and budget volatility. OnPoint helps clients move from reactive cloud cost reduction to a disciplined FinOps operating model.

We support cloud cost assessments, commitment optimisation, allocation design, forecasting, reporting and managed cloud cost governance.

Technology Cost Optimisation

Technology spend is now one of the largest and least transparent cost bases in many organisations. We help CIOs, CFOs and technology finance teams understand where money is going, how costs are consumed and where optimisation opportunities exist.

Vendor & Contract Optimisation

Many savings opportunities are hidden in supplier contracts, renewal terms, commercial models and historic pricing structures. We help finance, procurement and vendor management teams identify and act on those opportunities.
