Cloud Choices: Quantifying the Cost
and Risk Implications of Cloud

Your next 40 minutes: What to expect
• Transformational IT projects statistically fail:
Why? Is failure an option? What is your risk appetite?
• Perception of problems determines outcomes:
How can organisations best approach cloud adoption as a key decision?
• Methods for quantifying cost, risk and value:
How to mitigate risk and reduce cloud migration costs? Example: Data
Centre exit. Presented by Mark Trevor, Partner Cushman & Wakefield

Cost & Risk in Cloud Choices:
“How you think is what you get”

Alan Shepard,
Apollo 14 Astronaut
“ It's a very sobering feeling to be
up in space and realize that
one's safety factor was
determined by the lowest bidder
on a government contract.”

Is your status quo disrupted (even sustainable)?

7 Cloud Choices that impact RISK
1. Focus on technology, not business impact
2. Accountability and KPIs
3. Learnings (reflected in the business case)
4. Importance of planning head
5. Stakeholder consensus
6. Leadership: managing & motivating
7. Execution capabilities: talent, tools & techniques
Discenza, R. & Forman, J. B. (2007). Seven causes of project failure: how to recognize them and
how to initiate project recovery. Paper presented at PMI® Global Congress 2007—North America,

Cost & Risk in Cloud Choices:
“How you act is what you get”

Challenge linear progression maturity models

How suppliers think about you = how they act
“For decades, we have relied on the
old, sequential lifecycle model to
help plan and budget our activities
in each stage, moving customers
sequentially across each of those
stages.
Now that our buyers have higher
expectations and are self-
educating, our marketing needs to
become more personalized and
respond to individual behaviors. ”
