Our Process

A Structured, Low-Risk
Engagement Process

Every audit follows a six-phase workflow designed for transparency, security, and consistent quality. From discovery to delivery in 3—5 business days.

01

Discovery Call

15 minutes Required

Brief consultation to understand your infrastructure setup, business objectives, and specific pain points. We assess whether our services are the right fit.

Deliverables

  • Call notes
  • Qualification assessment

02

Secure Data Collection

10 minutes Required

Coordinate access via your preferred security method. We offer three options: read-only kubeconfig, manifest export, or guided screen-share—your security policy dictates the approach.

Deliverables

  • Secure access established
  • NDA signed (upon request)
  • Scope confirmation
03

Automated Analysis

~2 hours None required

Proprietary Python audit scripts parse YAML manifests, analyze cluster configurations, and flag optimization opportunities across six infrastructure categories.

Deliverables

  • Raw findings data
  • Automated report draft
  • Cost anomaly flags
04

Manual Deep Dive

1–2 hours None required

Expert review of automated findings with contextual analysis. We validate each recommendation, estimate savings conservatively, and assess implementation risk.

Deliverables

  • Refined findings
  • Cost impact analysis
  • Risk assessment
05

Report Drafting

~1 hour None required

Create a branded PDF report using our professional template. Recommendations are prioritized as Quick Wins (0–7 days), Medium-term (1–4 weeks), and Long-term (1–3 months).

  • 15–20 page PDF report
  • Prioritized action plan

Client Walkthrough

30 minutes Required

Present findings, discuss recommendations, answer questions, and propose next steps. Optional recording available for your internal team.

Deliverables

  • Findings presentation
  • Q&A session
  • Next steps agreement

Flexible Security Options

Your security requirements dictate the engagement model. Choose the option that aligns with your compliance needs.

Most Accurate

Read-Only Access

Client provides read-only kubeconfig with namespace restrictions. Least-privilege RBAC policies. We never make changes without explicit written approval.

Most Secure

Manifest Export

Client exports Kubernetes YAML manifests and Terraform configurations. Fully offline analysis without any access to live systems.

Most Controlled

Screen-Share Session

Client shares their screen during analysis. Real-time guidance while you retain full control of your systems throughout.
