Assessment method
A transparent sequence for mapping cloud service consumption across multi-app environments. Use it to prepare stakeholders before you enquire.
Our flagship Multi-App Cloud Consumption Assessment follows five stages. Workshops and usage reviews borrow subsets of the same sequence when a full estate map is unnecessary.
-
Scope call
Confirm applications, cloud accounts, date range, and the decision the work must support. We decline vague scopes that lack a closing decision owner.
-
Materials intake
Collect billing exports, tagging inventories, and a named owner for each application. We do not request production credentials.
-
Consumption mapping
Separate exclusive resources from shared ones. Build application-level views alongside service-family context without mixing them into one confusing table.
-
Draft review
Walk findings with finance and application owners. Capture disagreements early so the final pack reflects agreed attribution rules.
-
Final briefing
Deliver the written assessment, prioritised actions, and open questions assigned to named people. Optional quarterly briefings can continue from this baseline.
