With a presence in over 70 countries and a team of about 13,000 professionals, we combine global scale and local expertise to help partners and customers optimize costs, source and procure, accelerate growth, and navigate complex IT environments with confidence. Leveraging deep capabilities in cloud, software, and data and AI, the company empowers organizations to modernize, innovate, and unlock the full value of their technology investments.
At SoftwareOne, we help organizations turn FinOps from a concept into a measurable, value added repeatable behavior across all relevant stakeholders and teams – whether you’re just starting out or are looking to take your FinOps practice to the next level. Offering a full range of FinOps, ITAM and SaaS professional and managed services, SoftwareOne is platform-agnostic – working with customers’ existing FinOps and ITAM tools, onboarding customers onto one of our partners’ industry-leading tools, or our own, proprietary FinOps platform.
With the FinOps Foundation expanding technology categories to cover SaaS and datacenter, the disciplines of FinOps and ITAM continue to edge ever closer. At SoftwareOne, we offer our customers a full range of IT cost optimization services that complement FinOps, including ITAM Managed Services, SaaS Management and more, ensuring you have visibility into and can optimize your entire IT estate.
FinOps Maturity Assessment
The FinOps Maturity Assessment is an advisory service designed to evaluate your current FinOps capabilities and define a clear, actionable roadmap to achieve your desired maturity. We’ll assess your FinOps practice, tooling and operating model, benchmarking it against the FinOps Foundation framework, other organizations, and industry best practices. You’ll receive a set of clear recommendations from our FinOps consultants covering governance, processes, and team structure, as well as a prioritized roadmap to improve maturity and unlock value.
FinOps Professional Services
Our FinOps Professional Services help organizations establish or significantly improve their FinOps capabilities – supporting everything from rapid startup and faster time-to-value, to ongoing augmentation of established FinOps teams.
Our entry-level professional service, FinOps Discovery gives you full visibility into your cloud costs, quick-wins, optimization recommendations, and a full FinOps practice and solution maturity assessment, supported by an improvement roadmap.
We also offer a full professional service, FinOps Accelerate, which is designed to build out a new practice, or take existing FinOps practices to a higher maturity stage, based on industry standards and our best practices. It includes all that FinOps Discovery offers, plus support to define roles, processes, and governance for more advanced FinOps topics such as chargeback, forecasting, automation, AI and Sustainability, and more.
