ManTech joins FinOps Foundation as public sector voice for cloud value creation

Stephen Deitz, President of ManTech’s Federal Civil Sector

HERNDON, Va., July 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ManTech, a leading provider of artificial intelligence (AI), cyber and mission-focused technology solutions, has joined the FinOps Foundation as a Premier Member with a seat on the FinOps Board of Directors.

A blend of finance and DevOps, FinOps is an operational framework and cultural practice focused on maximizing the business value of the cloud to ensure financial accountability through best practices, a robust community of practitioners, and technology specifications. The FinOps framework provides mission-critical support across all aspects of cloud delivery, including engineering, finance, leadership, product, and procurement.

“ManTech has been optimizing our customers’ cloud spend for many years and has saved over $6 million in costs in a single contract year,” said Stephen Deitz, President of ManTech’s Federal Civilian Sector. “As a leader, we can serve as the ‘voice of the customer’ for agencies seeking to align cloud costs with mission outcomes, help ensure FinOps initiatives reflect the needs of the public sector, and expand adoption of the FinOps framework.”

The U.S. government’s move to cloud computing began with the 2011 “cloud-first” strategy, which required agencies to evaluate secure cloud computing options. Early adopters found that not all legacy applications and platforms could fully leverage the benefits of the cloud, resulting in high operational costs.

“The overarching goal of FinOps is to help organizations properly leverage cloud and enable collaboration across disciplines to achieve outcomes that align with organizational priorities now and in the future,” said Deitz. “While this approach can result in significant savings, the bottom line goes far beyond that – especially by reinvesting those dollars in new innovative capabilities.”
