Cloud Margin Recovery

Turn AWS waste into verified savings.

We find the savings, produce the engineering changes, work through your existing approval process and verify the reduction on your AWS bill.

01 · From estimate to outcome

Recommendations aren't savings.
Shipped changes are.

The value is lost between identifying an opportunity and getting a safe change into production. HKGpipi owns the path from discovery to measurement.

Identified value is not realised value.

02 · Operating method

One accountable path from opportunity to bill.

  1. 01

    Find

    Locate economically meaningful AWS savings opportunities.

  2. 02

    Validate

    Check the opportunity against usage, commitments and engineering risk.

  3. 03

    Assign

    Connect the saving to the responsible service, team and infrastructure.

  4. 04

    Change

    Produce the remediation, IaC change, ticket or pull-request-ready work.

  5. 05

    Approve

    Move through the customer's existing engineering and deployment controls.

  6. 06

    Verify

    Measure the resulting reduction against the agreed billing baseline.

03 · Engineering evidence

Not another recommendation.
The change required to realise it.

A saving only becomes actionable when engineering can see what changes, where it changes and what risk it carries.

04 · Customer control

Your infrastructure.
Your controls.

Discovery begins with tightly constrained read-only AWS access. Engineering changes move through your existing repositories, reviews and deployment controls.

  2. Ticket / PR
  3. CI
  4. Review
  5. Approval
  6. Production

HKGpipi does not bypass engineering.

05 · Measured result

A recommendation is estimated.
A saving is measured.

After deployment we watch billing data, establish the post-change result and report the verified annualised saving.

IllustrativeExpected → reconciliation → measured result
Expected annualised saving£184,000
Verified annualised saving£176,420

Illustrative reconciliation: expected annualised saving £184,000; verified annualised saving £176,420; variance to expected −£7,580 (−4.1%).

Conceptual explanation only. Final verification accounts for the agreed billing baseline and relevant workload changes.
