A managed model for continuous cost optimisation
COaaS helps organisations reduce waste, improve financial control and sustain measurable savings across telecom, cloud, software and wider technology spend.
A repeatable way to improve cost performance
COaaS is a managed operating model that combines spend transparency, expert analysis, commercial action and ongoing governance. It is designed for organisations that want more than a report or a software tool — it is for organisations that want a repeatable way to improve cost performance and maintain control over time.
- A managed operating model that continuously baselines spend
- Expert execution of commercial actions with suppliers
- Finance-validated savings tracked in a Savings & Rebates Ledger
- Governance and controls that prevent cost regression
- A risk/reward model — we get paid when outcomes are delivered
These are enablers, not the offer
- ✕A dashboard licence
- ✕A one-off benchmarking report
- ✕Staff augmentation
- ✕A transformation programme
"We prove savings first (for free), then we only get paid when validated savings, credits or rebates are delivered — supported by a 3-year programme that sustains results."
What is included in COaaS
Spend visibility and baseline control

Opportunity identification
Commercial, operational and financial opportunities sized and prioritised. Leakage, inefficiency and recovery areas surfaced with evidence.
Execution support
Negotiation, remediation, recovery, optimisation and control actions — supported by the right specialist capability at each stage.
Governance and reporting
Savings tracking, executive reporting, variance visibility and ongoing review cadence. Value is measured, validated and sustained.

Learn moreStart with a Proof of Value
Every COaaS engagement starts with a structured diagnostic that establishes the baseline, identifies the most credible opportunity areas and creates a decision-ready value case. This gives you confidence before a wider managed engagement begins.
The PoV is time-boxed to 10 business days, uses your own data, and ends with a one-page Value Case and a decision meeting. If the value is not compelling, you walk away with clarity at no cost.
Request Your Proof of ValueData access confirmed
We work with 3–6 months of invoices and your service inventory — even if imperfect. We can start with limited scope.
Spend baseline established
We produce a spend baseline, variance analysis, leakage indicators and a quick-win opportunity register within 10 business days.
Value Case delivered
Every PoV ends with a one-page Value Case: baseline, savings range, actions required and a clear recommendation.
Decision meeting
We present findings to CFO/CIO sponsors with a clear path to a 3-year risk/reward COaaS subscription paid from delivered outcomes.
What COaaS delivers for CIOs and CFOs
Significant cost savings
Achieve 15–30% reductions in operational and IT costs by eliminating waste and negotiating better rates.
Enhanced transparency
Granular visibility into where funds are going. CFOs receive detailed insight; CIOs can demonstrate how spend translates into outcomes.
Maximised ROI
Every dollar spent on technology delivers clear business value. Underutilised software and infrastructure is rationalised.
Stronger CFO-CIO alignment
A common framework and language for finance and IT to collaborate on investment decisions and cost initiatives.
Finance-validated outcomes
Savings are tracked in a Savings & Rebates Ledger, signed off by Finance — not just claimed by the service provider.
Sustained results
Governance and controls prevent cost regression. Value is retained and built upon over the full programme term.
