AWS cost audit for Manchester companies
Manchester runs the largest tech economy in the UK outside London — a heavyweight e-commerce cluster, MediaCity’s digital and broadcast businesses, and a deep bench of SaaS and agencies. Different sectors, same AWS pattern: growth outpaced housekeeping, and the bill compounds quietly.

- →E-commerce peaks set the baseline. Manchester’s retail and e-commerce heritage shows up in its AWS accounts: infrastructure sized for the biggest trading day, billing at that size all year. The steady floor belongs on Savings Plans; the peak belongs to autoscaling.
- →Media storage compounds. Broadcast, video and content businesses accumulate S3 at a rate other sectors don’t — assets, renditions and archives in Standard tier that lifecycle policies would tier down at 40–80% less.
- →Agency-land leftovers. One of the UK’s biggest agency scenes means client-project debris at scale: staging environments and demo stacks for engagements that wrapped years ago, still billing monthly.

Frequently asked questions
You’re not Manchester-based — does that matter?
The work is entirely remote by design (read-only scan, video findings call, written report), so geography only affects time zones — and we’re on UK hours like you. What matters is the guarantee: 20%+ of monthly spend found or the audit is free.
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.
£499 fixed. Free scan first. 20%+ found or it’s free.
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.
