The last 18 months has seen massive acceleration taking place in how technology has been adopted, procured and deployed.  Traditional cost and risk governance models  struggle to keep up with this transformation. The consequence is increasing costs due to “all in” cloud and licensing contracts, commercial complexity and unmanaged consumption. Chris Gough our Chief Strategy Officer discusses how controlling the consumption of cloud services is now a strategic priority and with some vendors still using traditional methods of contract audits across licensing and cloud, organisations are being hit from all sides with budget challenges.
