Attendees will learn how we moved beyond basic visibility to achieve 90% cost allocation accuracy and a 24% reduction in unit costs. We will dive deep into specific strategies for engineering buy-in, shifting from “policing” to “partnering” by writing business cases that help engineers justify decommissioning work. I’ll cover how we institutionalized stakeholder management through a “FinOps Calendar” to prevent ad-hoc distractions and extended our practice into SaaS by helping ITAM untangle software ownership. Finally, we will explore actionable steps for scaling FinOps, from gamifying cost awareness to automating governance via policy-as-code.
