When VMware by Broadcom introduced its new simplified bundle strategy earlier this year, it created new opportunities for enterprises to extract greater value from their VMware investments. Customers with active subscriptions to VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) or VMware vSphere Foundation (VVF) now have access to tools for operations management, automation, networking, and Kubernetes.

But if your organization is like many others, the question isn’t whether you have access to these tools—it’s whether you’re able to take advantage of them. That’s where WEI comes in, so let’s explore!

Get More Than Licensing, Get Value

As a long-time VMware partner with certified technical experts on staff, WEI doesn’t just sell VMware solutions, we help you operationalize them. Whether you’re working through with changes to your licensing model or trying to understand what capabilities are now included with your entitlements, WEI can help you move from license ownership to business impact.

The VMware Cloud Foundation platform includes:

• VCF Operations for real-time performance optimization and intelligent analytics
• VCF Automation for policy-based provisioning and infrastructure as code
• VCF Networking powered by NSX for secure and scalable software-defined networking
• VMware Kubernetes Service (VKS) for modern application deployment and management

These technologies work best when aligned with your environment and business goals. That’s why WEI developed a structured, assessment-led framework to help customers unlock their full potential.

WEI’s VMware Optimization Framework

WEI’s assessment framework includes four interconnected services:

1. VMware Optimization Assessment (VOA) – Powered by VCF Operations

The VMware Optimization Assessment is a diagnostic evaluation designed to uncover inefficiencies, performance issues, and compliance risks within your VMware environment. Powered by VCF Operations, the VOA includes guided walkthroughs of key dashboards and lab environments, along with actionable insights that IT leaders can use to drive measurable improvements.

Key benefits of the VOA include:

• Identification of idle or overprovisioned resources
• AI-assisted root cause analysis
• Rightsizing and predictive capacity planning
• Compliance scoring and drift detection
• Energy efficiency through workload consolidation

2. VMware Value Modeler (VVM)

The VMware Value Modeler translates technical performance metrics into business outcomes. By comparing baseline and optimized states, this tool allows IT and finance teams to justify projects based on ROI, capital efficiency, and risk mitigation. It supports C-suite reporting by converting infrastructure usage into budget-relevant language.

3. Private Cloud Maturity Model (PCMM)

The PCMM benchmarks your private cloud posture across six categories, including automation readiness, governance, and security. WEI’s structured evaluation provides a gap analysis that helps prioritize roadmap activities, identify risk areas, and guide long-term transformation plans.

4. Future State Architecture (FSA)

Through FSA planning, WEI helps define and build strategic architectural goals such as ransomware resilience, Private AI, and infrastructure as code. This is where IT modernization strategy meets execution, with clearly defined migration paths, KPIs, and cross-functional alignment.

Activate VMware Kubernetes Service (VKS)

Included in both VCF and VVF, VMware Kubernetes Service (VKS) enables enterprises to deploy and manage modern containerized applications. VKS supports TKG clusters and includes integration with GitOps pipelines and workload management. WEI helps accelerate VKS adoption with tailored support that aligns with CNCF standards and customer-specific operational needs.

Secure the Network with VCF Networking Powered by NSX

Traditional perimeter-based networking models no longer provide adequate security in hybrid and distributed environments. That’s why VMware rebranded NSX under the VCF Networking powered by NSX umbrella. It combines software-defined networking with the add-on of microsegmentation.

Through WEI’s network assessment and deployment services, organizations can:

• Improve network visibility by 30% or more
• Implement zero-trust architectures
• Reduce lateral movement and segmentation risk (via add-on)
• Automate policy enforcement and troubleshooting

Built for Compliance and Ready for Impact

For customers in regulated industries like healthcare or financial services, WEI tailors assessments to align with standards such as HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and ISO 27001. With embedded tools from VCF Operations and VCF Automation, WEI helps organizations enforce governance policies, minimize drift, and support ESG and compliance goals.

Move from Insight to Execution with WEI

Owning VMware Cloud Foundation or vSphere Foundation is only the first step. Making those bundles work for your business requires execution. From infrastructure assessments to automation, compliance, and cloud-native enablement, WEI helps you achieve value faster—often in less than eight weeks.
