AWS cost audit · Leeds
AWS cost audit for Leeds companies
Leeds has quietly become the UK’s health-and-government tech capital — NHS-adjacent platforms, govtech suppliers and a broad digital economy underneath. Public-sector-adjacent work shapes the AWS accounts: procurement-cautious architectures, belt-and-braces redundancy, and retention policies written for auditors rather than bills.
The free scan documents the waste with evidence per resource — useful for the bill and the next assurance review alike.

- →Assurance-grade everything. Supplying the NHS or government means demonstrating resilience — which quietly becomes Multi-AZ dev environments and duplicated stacks kept "in case an assessor asks". Assurance applies to production; the bill applies to everything.
- →Retention without tiering. Health and government data comes with genuine retention duties — routinely met with the most expensive storage available. Glacier tiers satisfy the same retention schedule at a fraction of the cost.
- →Long contracts, stale sizing. Multi-year public-sector contracts mean infrastructure sized at bid time, running unchanged years into delivery. Usage data accumulated since then almost always justifies smaller.

Frequently asked questions
We handle NHS-adjacent data. Is the scan appropriate?
The scan reads configuration and utilisation metadata through a read-only role you create and delete — it does not access application data, databases or object contents. What it reports is resource inventory and cost evidence, which is exactly what your information-governance lead will want to see documented anyway.
Does the audit require anyone on site?
No — the entire engagement is remote: the scan runs through a read-only role you create in your own account (and delete afterwards), the findings call happens over video, and the report is delivered as a document your team works through. UK hours, UK company, no travel line on the invoice.

The scan is read-only — a role you create and delete, no keys shared — and shows your estimated monthly saving before anyone talks about money.
