# Finops Teams Time Spent

This criteria below is used to calculate the number of hours saved as a result of utilizing Dotted's services.

1. **Small Infrastructure (up to $40k/month in cloud spending)** 
   1. **Low ESR (<10%):** 25 hours/month, indicating the need for more work in identifying savings opportunities.&#x20;
   2. **Medium ESR (10%-30%):** 20 hours/month, reflecting moderately efficient cost management.
   3. **High ESR (>30%):** 15 hours/month, suggesting efficient use of discounts and less need for continuous optimization.
2. **Medium Infrastructure (or $40k to $400k/month in cloud spending)**&#x20;
   1. **Low ESR (<10%):** 90 hours/month, higher need for analysis and adjustment to improve savings.&#x20;
   2. **Medium ESR (10%-30%):** 70 hours/month, good cost management, but room for improvement.&#x20;
   3. **High ESR (>30%):** 50 hours/month, high efficiency in obtaining discounts and cost management.
3. **Large Infrastructure (more than $400k/month in cloud spending)**
   1. **Low ESR (<10%):** 225 hours/month, indicating significant potential for optimization and need for intensive efforts.&#x20;
   2. **Medium ESR (10%-30%):** 175 hours/month, active cost management with need for continuous optimization.&#x20;
   3. **High ESR (>30%):** 125 hours/month, demonstrates highly effective cost management, reducing the workload required for optimization.
