Spend & margin diagnostic
A full read of where money leaves the business, sized and ranked by realistic capture value and speed.
Practice I
Margin you already own — captured.
We work the cost base line by line: procurement, contracts, payments, logistics and working capital. The measure of success is EBITDA, not a recommendation.
Where It Hurts
The symptoms leadership sees first.
- Spend is fragmented across sites, entities and legacy vendors nobody owns.
- Contracts renew quietly with escalators and surcharges no one challenges.
- Savings are announced but never traced to the income statement.
What We Do
Hands-on work, not recommendations.
Vendor & contract renegotiation
We run the process end to end — market testing, negotiation, redlines — sitting on your side of the table.
Working capital discipline
Terms, inventory, receivables and payment structures tuned to release cash without disrupting operations.
Savings governance
Every dollar tracked from signature to P&L, with owners, dates and monthly reporting your CFO trusts.
