  1. In the Azure portal, open Cost Management + Billing and select Savings plans.
  2. Review the plan's eligible compute usage, utilization, scope, term, and hourly commitment with the workload owner and FinOps team.
  3. Compare the expected demand and cost with pay-as-you-go pricing and the available Savings Plan options.
  4. If continued coverage is justified, purchase a new Savings Plan with the approved scope, term, and hourly commitment. Azure Savings Plans are not renewed in place.
  5. If replacement coverage is not justified, document the decision and update budgets and forecasts for the expected pay-as-you-go charges.
