How we calculate savings

We use conservative benchmarks so the numbers are defensible in your business case.

Developer Productivity

Platform engineering reduces time spent on infrastructure tasks, environment setup, and debugging. DORA research shows developers spend 30–40% of time on non-feature work.

We use 8% productivity gain — industry benchmarks show 12–15% with full platform adoption.

Ops Efficiency

Self-service infrastructure reduces ticket volume and manual provisioning work, freeing platform teams for strategic initiatives.

We use 40% capacity freed — industry benchmarks show 50–60% reduction in toil.

Cloud Cost Savings

Standardised environments and automated cleanup eliminate orphaned resources and over-provisioning.

We use 10% waste eliminated — organisations typically waste 10–15% of cloud spend.

Additional Savings

Security incidents, compliance violations, and audit failures can cost organisations significantly. Platform engineering with built-in guardrails helps prevent these.

Not included: security breach remediation, compliance penalties, and audit costs are additional savings beyond this estimate.
