    Cutting digital projects is not an option. Cutting costs is a great place to start.

    1. SaaS and licenses Remove duplicates, unused seats, and wrong editions. Target: 10–18% in 60–90 days. 2. Cloud costs (FinOps lite) Reservations and commitments, rightsizing, auto-off for non-prod, right storage classes. Target: 15–25%. 3. Contracts and support Reprice maintenance, support, carriers, MDM, backup. Use notice windows and benchmarks-target: 8–20%. 4. Shadow IT Consolidate tool sprawl, standardise, and harden policies: target 5–12% plus lower risk. 5. Runbook automation Patch and deploy, onboarding and offboarding, first-line scripts. Direct OPEX impact. Necessary: Do not freeze savings. Reinvest to close security gaps, fund AI pilots or pay down technical debt.
