Navigating the overlap between ITAM and FinOps in the Cloud+ era

The average large enterprise lost $104 million in 2024 due to underutilized technology¹. IT teams are responsible for orchestrating the balance between financial accountability and optimal strategy. The FinOps Foundation’s new Cloud+ model is the seismic shift FinOps teams and ITAM practitioners needed to better uncover hidden costs and drive innovation. With expanded scopes that now include areas like SaaS management and software licensing, FinOps is moving beyond its traditional bounds and stepping squarely into ITAM territory.

This timely webinar—recorded just days after the annual FinOpsX conference—will cut through the hype and address what Cloud+ really means for ITAM. Is this an encroachment, a collaboration, or both? And how can ITAM professionals position themselves as indispensable partners rather than sidelined specialists?

Experts from SoftwareOne and Flexera break down:

• What the FinOps Cloud+ framework introduces—and why it matters now
• Where ITAM and FinOps scopes are starting to overlap (or collide)
• How ITAM leaders can use this shift to elevate their role, drive cross-team alignment, and unlock deeper cost insights across SaaS, on-prem, and cloud

This is not another webinar about “how ITAM and FinOps are better together.” This is a forward-looking session for ITAM leaders who want to stay relevant, strategic, and ready.
