As organizations increasingly adopt cloud services, managing cloud costs effectively becomes critical. This is where FinOps—the practice of cloud financial operations—plays a key role. But how do you measure where your organization stands on the FinOps journey? That’s where the FinOps Maturity Assessment comes in.
You can download the free tool here, and use it immediately with your engineering teams.
What is the FinOps Maturity Assessment?
The FinOps Maturity Assessment is a framework created by the FinOps Foundation to help organizations evaluate their progress across three key phases: Crawl, Walk, and Run. It assesses capabilities across personas (Engineering, Finance, Product, Procurement) and domains such as cost allocation, anomaly detection, forecasting, and cloud usage optimization.
By using this model, teams can identify where they are excelling and where they need to grow, based on well-defined best practices.
Why Use a FinOps Assessment?
- Roadmap – The FinOps Maturity Assessment will help you build a multi-year implementation roadmap. This will help the organization adopt FinOps and move from low maturity to High Maturity reducing your cloud cost significantly.
- Clarity: It provides a clear picture of current maturity across teams and functions.
- Benchmarking: Helps compare progress against industry standards or internal goals.
- Prioritization: Identifies the next best steps to improve your FinOps practice.
- Alignment: Builds alignment between engineering, finance, and leadership on cloud usage goals.
