AWS funding for your migration and modernization
AWS sets aside money to help companies move to AWS and modernize, but only Partners can apply for it. Averium finds the programs that fit, prepares the application and submits it on your behalf. AWS makes the final award.
What can be funded
AWS programs we can request as your Partner, plus our own share.
Migration Acceleration Program (MAP)
Credits and partner funding for assessing, planning and executing a migration to AWS from on-premises or another cloud.

Funding to prove a new workload on AWS before you commit to moving it.
Learn moreMigration Evaluator
A free AWS assessment of your on-premises estate that produces a data-driven business case for the move.
Optimization and Licensing Assessment (OLA)
A free AWS review of Windows Server and SQL Server licensing, so you don't carry unnecessary licenses to AWS.
Well-Architected Partner reviews
Reviews by an AWS Partner can qualify for AWS credits toward fixing the high-risk issues they find.

Where the work lowers your AWS bill, part of our fee is recovered from those savings instead of being invoiced upfront.

- 1
Eligibility check
Free. We look at your workloads, where they run today and the expected AWS spend, then list the programs that fit.
- 2
Application & SOW
We prepare the business case, plan and statement of work, and submit them to AWS as your Partner.
- 3
AWS decision
AWS reviews the request and sets the award. Nothing is promised before that.
- 4
Delivery & credits
We deliver the work; credits and funding are applied as the agreement says, and passed through on your invoice if you're billed by us.
What we will and won't promise
Funding is real money with real conditions. Here is how we handle it.
- AWS makes every award. We never quote an amount before AWS has reviewed the request.
- Customers can't apply directly; funding has to be originated by an AWS Partner.
- Programs don't always stack: PoC funding and MAP can't both fund the same workload.
- Credits apply only to eligible spend, as defined in each agreement.
- If no program fits, we tell you, before you've spent anything.
Common questions
Why can't we apply for AWS funding ourselves?+
AWS runs these programs through its Partner Network. Requests are created and managed by a Partner, who is accountable for delivering the funded work.
How much funding can we get?+
It depends on the program, the workload and its expected AWS spend, and AWS decides each request. We'll give you a realistic range after the eligibility check, not before.
Is the eligibility check really free?+
Yes. It's a conversation and a look at your current environment. You only commit to anything when you sign a statement of work.
What does Averium co-funding mean?+
When a project lowers your AWS bill, such as a migration onto right-sized infrastructure or a Graviton move, part of our fee is recovered from the savings it produces instead of being invoiced upfront. The split is written into the statement of work.
