Business Value and Sustainability Assessment
Build a comprehensive business case for migration of an on-premises infrastructure and applications to Microsoft Azure. Gathering fact-based information from your current environment, we will create a proposal which spans technical, financial and sustainability elements which is ready for presentation to your decision makers.
Benefits of a Business Value and Sustainability Assessment
Explore the full range of benefits that come from moving to the cloud, including technical, financial and environmental. Build a comprehensive business case that brings all of your key business stakeholders and initiatives on the journey, to ensure you make the right decision for your organisation.
Our assessment will deliver a 5-year total cost of ownership analysis, showing the key financial decision making criteria of a move to the cloud. Projected costs are derived from scanning your environment with best in class assessment tools, meaning that you plan for what your organisation needs, removing wasted spend through over-provisioning.
Cloud migration offers a host of environmental benefits to your organisation, as the leading providers run cutting-edge datacenters with the best green credentials. If you have your own sustainability targets and/or need to adhere to regulations in this area, let us help you to achieve them with quantifiable improvments, e.g. reduction in carbon emissions over a 5-year period.
We can build your financial and sustainability business case using specific data points from your organisation, ensuring full accuracy. However, where needed, we can compliment this with industry benchmark data from trusted sources to fill in any blanks and ensure a reliable outcome.
We don’t sell cloud migration services or cloud consumption/licensing, so you can rely on us to produce an unbiased business case for your organisation. Also, with our Cloud Cost Management services, we can continue working with you into the future to ensure that you always have a fully optimised and efficient setup.
Gartner insights
Did you know...
Gartner forecasts that by 2028, over 50% of enterprises will be using industry-specific cloud platforms to drive their business initiatives. By then, cloud will have become an essential component for most organisations. We believe this emphasises the need to build a compelling business case prior to migration to understand the full benefits.

To ensure a full and valuable data set, we will continue to monitor over the scanning period and inform you if any remediations need to be done.
Report Building
Using the data collected, we will build out a report covering the business value for migration across a 5-year period, including sustainability insights.
Results Sharing
We will get all stakeholders together on a call to playback the results and answer any questions you may have. All the outputs will be shared with you after this call.
