Create and maintain organizational policy prohibiting creation of certain instance types to eliminate billing surprises. For example: forbid c2d-highcpu-112 machine types if your team does not plan to use them.

Create and maintain organizational policy prohibiting direct role assignments to individuals. Use groups instead. Control the role group assignment and prevent overly permissive roles. GCP's IAM recommendations are a nice place to start.
