When we help

Three moments we step in

Scenario 01
EDP expiration
The current EDP term ends in twelve months. AWS is positioning a renewal commit. You want sizing, flex, and price protection before any letter of intent.
Scenario 02
Commitment shortfall
Spend is trailing the EDP commit and the true up is approaching. You need a remediation plan and an open dialogue with AWS that does not signal weakness.
Scenario 03
EDP re negotiation
Workload mix changed mid term. Marketplace spend exploded. You want to re open the agreement before renewal to reset the commit and the discount.
How we help

Four phase EDP procedure

Phase 01
Spend baseline
Cost and Usage Report assembled. Workload mix isolated. Savings plan and reserved instance posture mapped against the current EDP commit.
Phase 02
Commit model
Forward demand modeled across compute, storage, data transfer, marketplace, and AI services. Commit sized with shortfall and overage tolerance.
Phase 03
Negotiation
Discount stack negotiated. Flex clauses drafted. Marketplace pass through written in. Migration credits and PSO positioned as renewal levers.
Phase 04
Close and governance
EDP signed with the side letter. FinOps cadence stood up. Quarterly checkpoint installed against commit burn and roll forward eligibility.
