Cost Structure Analysis
Every cost line tested against the revenue it supports, with fixed and variable separated properly rather than by convention.
Profit Improvement Program
Margin erodes quietly. By the time it reaches the annual accounts it has usually been leaking for four or five quarters, spread thinly enough that no single line looks alarming. This program finds where it goes, sizes each leak in money per year, and sequences the fixes by what they return against what they cost to make.
What We Offer
Where Margin Is Recovered
Product and Customer Profitability
Margin computed per product, per customer and per branch — which is usually where the surprise sits.
Pricing and Discount Review
What discounting actually costs across a full year, and which prices have not moved while their inputs have.
Procurement and Overhead
Purchasing policy, supplier terms and administrative overhead reviewed against benchmarks we can substantiate.
Our Approach
From Leak to Line Item
-
Isolate
We rebuild margin from source and find where it separates from where you expect it to be.
-
Quantify
Each leak is sized in money per year, so the fixes can be ranked rather than argued.
-
Sequence
The plan runs in the order that returns cash earliest, not in the order that is easiest to write.
