Cloud Cost and Value Optimisation

Cost Optimisation

Partner, Head of Clients and Markets

Cloud cost has become a silent value leak across many PE-backed businesses.

Cloud providers and resellers are not incentivised to reduce costs. Engineering teams prioritise features and stability over cost. Poor cost allocation prevents spend being linked to business value. The result is material waste, limited accountability and rising margin pressure.

Panamoure helps PE portfolio companies identify quick-win savings, tackle the root causes of overspend and align cloud cost to value, without long-term commitments or expensive consultancy.

Our approach

Our AI tooling and data-led approach focuses on three outcomes:

  • Immediate cost savings through targeted optimisation
  • Improved cost allocation and accountability
  • Stronger commercial controls linking spend to value

On average, we identify 37% cloud cost savings, alongside a clear, actionable plan to prevent cost re-emergence.

What we do

We deliver a focused, outcome-led engagement including:

  • Cost Allocation Audit Report to fix tagging issues and enable accurate forecasting, budgeting and chargeback
  • Cost Optimisation Opportunity Report and FinOps Maturity Assessment to identify inefficiencies in £ terms and prioritise remediation
  • KPI Dashboards for key persons to drive behaviour change around the biggest cost levers

All designed to deliver transparency, fast savings and sustainable control across Azure, AWS and GCP.

Why it works

  • Average 37% cost savings identified
  • Software-led insight combined with cloud and commercial SMEs
  • Tactical quick wins alongside longer-term value creation
  • Contingent success model with skin in the game
