notes: Quorum Software does not publish a per-API meter or invoice surface; FinOps mapping is anchored
  to the enterprise software contract.
description: FOCUS-aligned FinOps for Quorum Software is contract-based; Land Management, Royalty Accounting,
  and other modules are licensed per enterprise agreement rather than metered by API call.

  - name: Visibility
    description: Surface Quorum spend through the enterprise license register; the platform itself
      exposes operational telemetry inside the customer deployment but not as a billing meter.
  - name: Allocation
    description: Allocate license cost across the upstream business units consuming Land, Royalty, or
      Production modules; tag well or tract data to the operating asset for downstream FinOps reporting.
  - name: Optimization
    description: Right-size the licensed module set at renewal; deactivate modules and integrations
      that are no longer in use to avoid carrying capacity beyond steady-state need.
  - name: Accountability
    description: The land/operations IT team owns the Quorum contract; finance reviews module utilization
      against contracted entitlements at renewal.
