StableLogic supports customers in implementing detailed AWS cost segmentation by:

• Enabling allocation by AWS Organisation, account structure, resource types, and tags (business units, environments, applications, teams, etc.).
• Defining and applying AWS Cost Categories, allowing customers to group resources across accounts and services into logical business groupings.
• Segmenting costs by AWS Region, linked accounts, and specific service usage types using AWS Cost Explorer, Budgets, and Cost Anomaly Detection.
• Ensuring customers have the right tagging strategy and enforcement in place for effective ongoing cost allocation.

We guide customers through best practices for tagging policies and help implement governance mechanisms to ensure tag coverage and consistency across the AWS environment.

StableLogic assists customers in developing unit economics models, allowing them to:

• Attribute AWS spend to meaningful business metrics (e.g., cost per customer, cost per transaction, or cost per workload).
• Combine CUR (Cost and Usage Report) data with application or business metadata to build KPIs that track efficiency, profitability, and scaling behaviour.
• Use this information to inform pricing models, internal chargebacks, or forecasting processes.

Our consultants work closely with finance and engineering stakeholders to define what unit metrics are most valuable and ensure alignment with business outcomes.

There are often shared services such as monitoring within the AWS account which can’t be allocated to any single project or cost centre.

StableLogic provides expertise in allocating shared services (e.g., VPC, Direct Connect, backup systems, central logging) by:

• Implementing cost-sharing models using AWS cost allocation tags and Cost Categories.
• Supporting proportional cost splitting or fixed allocation models, based on resource usage or custom business rules.
• Leveraging custom CUR queries or tools like Athena, QuickSight, or external platforms (e.g., Apptio, CloudHealth) to track shared usage and apply appropriate splits.

We also help customers document and communicate cost allocation strategies internally, improving transparency and accountability across teams.

StableLogic provides hands-on support to integrate and use the AWS Cost and Usage Report (CUR), helping customers:

• Set up CUR delivery to Amazon S3 and configure Athena/Glue for querying.
• Customise dashboards using CUDOS, Cost Intelligence Dashboards, or integrate with BI tools such as Power BI or Tableau.
• Enable scheduled reporting and cost trend analysis across dimensions like service, account, region, tag, or usage type.

We also assist customers in setting up alerts, anomaly detection, and budget tracking to ensure cost governance policies are adhered to.
