JASON: THE CORE ELEMENTS OF THE FINOPS FRAMEWORK

“They call them core elements. We've talked about some of them in some of our episodes, but Principles, Personas, Phases, Maturity, Domains, and Capabilities are the core elements of the FinOps framework.”

JASON: ADVICE FOR THOSE STILL STARTING WITH THEIR FRAMEWORK

“The first phase is to start with Inform. Inform gives you visibility and allows you to allocate your environment properly, budget, and forecast out into the future. So that's where I would start, with the informed phase, set realistic, SMART goals for the organization and what they want to achieve from either allocating, whatever is important, allocation, anomalies, forecasting, whatever is important to the organization, set those and then start to live up.”
