ComSenOps helps UK organisations reduce Azure spend permanently — without disrupting engineering teams — by implementing platform cost controls and preventing cost drift from returning.
1) Cost Risk & Control Diagnostic
A fixed-scope diagnostic to identify why Azure spend is rising, what is driving cost drift, and which controls will prevent it recurring.
Typical duration: 2–4 weeks
Typical investment: £3,500–£6,000
2) Control Implementation Sprint
Implementation of platform-level cost controls — starting with compute lifecycle ownership and automation, then addressing the wider cost failures it exposes (where justified).
Typical duration: 4–8 weeks
Typical investment: £10,000–£20,000
3) Ongoing Cost Stewardship
Continuous cost stewardship to keep savings from evaporating: regular optimisation updates, lifecycle reviews, and a named owner accountable for preventing regression.
Typical commitment: monthly retainer
Typical investment: £1,500–£3,000/month
What “cost control” means in practice
Not dashboards. Not one-off rightsizing. ComSenOps focuses on mechanisms: compute lifecycle management, cost-efficient defaults, guardrails, automation, and an operable approach that engineering teams can live with day-to-day.
Best fit
Organisations with an established Azure estate and a growing bill — typically £30k–£500k/month — where finance wants predictability and technology leaders want stability.
What’s included (and what isn’t)
- Included: platform-level cost controls, compute lifecycle ownership, guardrails, automation, and pragmatic governance improvements.
- Not included: application rewrites, migration programmes, or “extra pair of hands” staff augmentation.
- Delivery principle: safe, staged change with clear rollback — designed to protect production environments and avoid disruption.
If a prerequisite issue blocks cost control (for example: a critical application dependency or a structural platform constraint), it will be stated plainly, with options and trade-offs.
