Finance and Risk
Managing technology cost and financial risk stopped being an occasional task: most FinOps teams already cover even AI spend. What's still missing, for most, is proving that control turns into real return.
- Technology cost with an owner and ongoing review, not a quarterly spreadsheet
- Technical risk handled alongside financial risk, not in separate silos
- Technology ROI actually measured, not estimated

We map cost and risk by area before proposing any new technology financial governance process.
