Maintech’s governance and optimization program reduced the manufacturer’s monthly Azure bill by $15,000—achieving a 43% cost reduction. Oversized virtual machines, orphaned resources, and licensing inefficiencies were identified and eliminated, turning wasted spend into measurable ROI.
By implementing standardized naming conventions, smart resource tagging, and Azure Policy frameworks, Maintech gave leadership visibility into spending across departments and projects. This structured governance transformed cloud costs from a “black box” into transparent, actionable financial data.
Automated monitoring, right-sizing policies, and proactive cost alerting ensured the environment stayed optimized over time. Instead of one-time fixes, Maintech established sustainable processes that prevented future waste and delivered ongoing financial and operational benefits.
Maintech performed a full assessment of the manufacturer’s Azure environment, uncovering inefficiencies such as oversized VMs, redundant network gateways, premium storage misconfigurations, and double-charged licenses. This audit provided the foundation for structured cost reduction.
A tailored Azure governance program was introduced, including standardized naming conventions, department-level tagging, and policy enforcement. These frameworks ensured visibility, accountability, and consistency across all resources.
Maintech implemented right-sizing policies, automated shutdowns for dev/test environments, and storage tier adjustments. Orphaned resources were removed, and licensing entitlements corrected—resulting in immediate, measurable savings.
