Power Platform Finops

FOCUS-aligned FinOps for Microsoft Power Platform: layered model combining per-user subscriptions (Power Apps Premium $20, Power Automate Premium $15), per-bot subscriptions (Process $150, Hosted Process $215), tenant-level add-ons (Process Mining $5,000, Dataverse storage $40/GB/month), pre-paid Copilot Credits ($200 per 25,000), and pay-as-you-go overage for Power Apps. The unifying meter is Power Platform Requests (PPR), entitled per license on a 24-hour sliding window. Add-on capacity packs raise target identities by 50k PPR/day each and are stackable.
