KEY SERVICES

Specialist capabilities. Tangible results.

Focused consulting and engineering across technology cost, modern cloud and data platforms, and automation.

$

FinOps & Cost Optimisation

Cloud spend analysis, commitments, idle resources, account consolidation, licence rationalisation and savings delivery.

  • AWS / Azure / GCP cost analysis
  • RI & Savings Plan strategy
  • Licence & vendor rationalisation
  • Optimisation opportunity register
◎

IT Cost Allocation & ITFM

  • Financial / operational / project views
  • Taxonomy & allocation rules
  • Showback / chargeback foundations
  • Apptio / Nicus-ready adapters
△

Data Architecture & Migration

Modern, open data platforms designed for portability, governance and long-term ownership.

  • AWS lakehouse & Iceberg
  • Databricks / dbt architecture
  • Warehouse & platform migration
  • Data quality & lineage
↻

Automation & Re-engineering

Reduce manual work across technology and finance operations with repeatable pipelines and controls.

  • Workflow automation
  • Reporting modernisation
  • CI/CD & Infrastructure as Code
  • Controls, auditability & governance
LOW-RISK ENGAGEMENT MODEL

Prove value before scaling the programme.

Start with savings and a tightly scoped proof of concept — then expand only when the data, value and operating model are proven.

01

Optimisation Sprint

Identify tangible savings across cloud, licences, contracts, duplicate tooling and inefficient processes.

Outcome: quantified opportunity register
02

Focused PoC

Connect a representative slice of ERP, cloud, on-premise and project data and prove the three cost perspectives.

Outcome: reconciled working model
03

Scale & Automate

Expand the model across entities, platforms and countries with governance, automation and controlled ownership.

Outcome: production cost foundation
WHY KILARK

Platform-independent by design.

The difficult part of IT cost management is rarely the dashboard. It is agreeing what the data means, connecting it reliably, and governing how costs are classified and allocated.

We build that foundation as an enterprise-owned asset so you can consume it through Power BI, Apptio, Nicus, APIs or a future platform without rebuilding the underlying logic.

✓

One governed taxonomy
Applications, services, projects, cost centres, assets and business units.

✓

One reconciled cost ledger
Traceable back to ERP / GL and authoritative source data.

✓

Multiple business perspectives
Financial, operational and project views from the same source facts.

✓

Open integration model
Thin adapters for downstream ITFM, BI and finance platforms.

FOUNDER-LED DELIVERY

Senior technology experience, applied where cost meets architecture.

Kilark is led by Peter Kralik, a technology and data leader with more than 18 years of experience delivering complex enterprise transformation across cloud, data platforms, FinOps, architecture and cost optimisation.

His experience spans large global organisations and complex technology estates, combining the commercial view of technology cost with the engineering depth required to make change happen. Kilark was created to bring that senior, hands-on approach directly to clients — without the layers and overhead of traditional consulting.

The principle is simple: understand where technology money goes, make the allocation defensible, and turn that visibility into better investment decisions and measurable savings.

SELECTED ENTERPRISE EXPERIENCE

Relevant experience across complex technology estates.

Selected examples of enterprise delivery across FinOps, replatforming, IT estate rationalisation, data modernisation and cost optimisation. Details are intentionally high level to respect client confidentiality.

FinOps Cloud Cost Governance
