Description
The Department of Veterans Affairs is seeking information on a cloud brokerage service to manage cloud credit procurement, utilization tracking, and financial reconciliation across multiple cloud service providers. The service should provide a single, enterprise-governed mechanism for acquiring cloud credits and professional services, with predictable availability, prevention of fragmented purchasing, and standardized enterprise financial oversight. The service should also provide normalized, granular usage insights, operational transparency, and automated detection of unexpected consumption patterns.
• The service should support multiple cloud service providers, including Azure, AWS, GCP, and OCI.
• The service should provide a single contractual vehicle for multi-CSP credit purchasing and fully integrated usage visibility.
• The service should enable automated, end-to-end provisioning, capturing user-managed intake, automated approvals, resource provisioning, tagging enforcement, and financial policy alignment.
• The service should provide accurate and transparent attribution, mission-aligned cost clarity, and support for decision making around modernization and budgeting.
• The service should ensure lifecycle practices reduce unused resources, prevent inefficient deployment, and provide cost-aware workload placement.
