Don’t let cloud spend
cast a shadow
We help organisations cut unnecessary cloud and M365 spend, delivering up to 50% cost reduction without changing providers.
Our cloud FinOps consultants uncover savings your cloud partner won’t, delivering immediate and continuous savings.
“The average organisation saves 30% of their cloud spend when partnering with a licensing and FinOps specialist”
At Brunel Cloud, we’re not a reseller. We don’t mark up services, and we have no incentive to push usage. As an independent consultancy, we work only for you — identifying hidden inefficiencies in your Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, AWS, and Microsoft 365 spend, then showing you exactly how to fix them.
No conflicts of interest. No upselling. Just aligned, transparent advice.
Using deep licensing expertise and a data-driven FinOps approach, we typically uncover 20–40% in savings for mid-market and enterprise organisations. You gain visibility, forecasting control, and the confidence to negotiate better contracts.
Top 10 FAQs
-
FinOps (Financial Operations) is the practice of bringing financial accountability to cloud spend. It helps businesses improve visibility, assign costs accurately through cross-charging and departmental billing, and make better decisions on cloud usage. After all, if you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it.
-
In the first engagement, we typically identify significant one-off savings; but that’s just the start. We continue to deliver ongoing optimisations as your environment evolves. Our model is built for long-term impact, not just a one-time audit.
-
Due to the nature of our consultancy, we can only engage where we believe we can deliver meaningful savings. If you’re unsure whether that includes your organisation, feel free to reach out; we’re happy to advise.
-
We request read-only access to billing and usage data. Wherever possible, we use vendor-native tooling (such as Azure Cost Management). For Microsoft 365, we’ve developed a custom analytics tool to drive more intelligent cost reductions.

We charge a small portion of the savings we identify; this includes a fully managed FinOps service with bespoke monthly reporting to drive continuous cost reduction. Our pricing is fixed and transparent, with no hidden fees.
