description: 'FOCUS-aligned FinOps placeholder for Interface Inc: a commercial flooring manufacturer
  with no public API or rate card. FinOps applies primarily to internal IT spend and partner integration
  cost rather than a public API surface.'
notes: Interface Inc does not publish a public API rate card. Meters below model the typical partner-integration
  surface; cannot be reconciled without a customer contract.
