a U.S.-based Consumer Services Company eliminates $39K in monthly cloud spend with Bluewave Technology Group

A U.S.-based consumer services company in the construction industry faced significant cloud waste and limited visibility into its Azure and Microsoft 365 environment. The company engaged Bluewave Technology Group, which performed a cloud assessment to identify cost sprawl from idle resources like powered-off virtual machines and inefficient license management.

Bluewave Technology Group implemented a structured optimization plan, starting with low-risk cleanup and moving toward stronger governance controls. The solution identified $39,000 in monthly savings, including over $10,000 from zombie VMs and disks and nearly $30,000 from Microsoft 365 license right-sizing, providing the client with a clearer path to reducing recurring cloud spend.
