Your data bill is going up and nobody can explain why
Three questions tell you whether you're managing your data bill or just watching it happen: Where did the money go? Can you predict next month? Who will act on it?
FinDataOps closes the gap between CFO, CTO, and Head of Data by giving all three the same facts to work from.
You can't explain the cloud bill.
90-95% of spend mapped to an owner within the Assess phase.
Finance, engineering, and data work from different data.
One shared view for finance, engineering, and data leadership.
You can't prove the platform is worth what you're paying.
Before/after savings confirmed at each milestone gate, with a Verified Impact Report at close.
When FinOps and DataOps alone are no longer enough
FinDataOps is a structured engagement model that connects cloud cost data with data operational context.
It gives finance, engineering, and data leadership one shared view: what was spent, what it produced, and what to do next.
Where FinDataOps creates impact
Cost visibility
Single view of data platform spend across finance, engineering, and product. 90–95% of costs mapped to an owner within the Assess phase.
Governance by design
Guardrails-as-Code embedded in your pipelines and CI/CD. Anomalies flagged before they reach the invoice.
Unit economics
Cost per data product, measured and visible. The answer to the question the board is asking: does this platform generate value in proportion to what it costs?
FinDataOps
One operating model across both, built for visibility, predictability, and governance by design.
FinOps
Gives you visibility into cloud costs, governance over budgets, and a way to optimise infrastructure spend.
DataOps
Keeps your pipelines delivering, your data quality high, and your operations moving at speed.

Book your working session
Thank you!
Thank you for submitting the form. We will get in touch with you soon.
Your data platform costs don't have to be a mystery, let's fix that
Book a 60–90 minute working session. We use read-only signals: no data movement, no commitment beyond the session. You leave with a clear problem statement and a Go/Park decision.
Three phases. A go/park gate
at every step.
You are never committed beyond the phase you are in. Each phase has a fixed scope, defined outputs, and a clear decision point. You can stop, accelerate, or adjust at every gate. Commercial alignment is available at each stage.
4-6 weeks
Build your trusted fact base. First insights in ≤10 working days.
We establish a baseline of your cost drivers, delivery bottlenecks, and governance gaps using read-only signals. No data movement. No PII. On day 10 at the latest, you have your first actionable insight. The phase closes with a FinDataOps Report, a Strategic Capabilities Assessment, and a prioritised Optimisations Backlog of 10–20 actions ranked by impact and effort.
What you gain
- FinDataOps Report
- Capabilities Assessment
- Optimisations Backlog
- Go/Park gate
Understanding your business goals
We start by gaining a deep understanding of your vision, challenges, and key objectives. This allows us to tailor our recommendations to what truly matters to your business.
