Managed Services Contracts: Recurring managed services contracts (Flow, Nexus models) where SOU acts as an extension of the client's technology team, providing ongoing cloud management, security monitoring, AI/data operations. Revenue is recurring (monthly/annual billing) with flexible scoping. The Flex model provides project-based (one-time) engagements with defined start, middle, and end phases.
2. Professional Services (Implementation & Consulting): One-time project fees for cloud migrations, modernization projects, cybersecurity implementations, AI deployments, and backup solutions. Charged per project with scope-based pricing. Integration with Azure and M365 consumption billing (commissions on Azure/M365 consumption cited in job postings).
3. Azure/M365 Consumption and Licensing: As a Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) Tier 1, SOU.cloud resells and manages Azure and Microsoft 365 licenses on behalf of clients. Commissions are earned on Azure consumption and M365 subscriptions, creating a usage-based revenue stream layered on top of managed services contracts.
