Cost Management Services
We help companies lower costs and remove bloat to unleash their full potential for growth, innovation, and profitability.
We do so by conducting an extensive review, offering a comprehensive solution, facilitating change, and finish by building internal independence. Key to our success is fostering relationships with client leadership such that they recognize that we are allies in meeting common objectives. The end result is an organization that is lean and best able to deliver for its customers, employees, and shareholders.
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.” – Author unknown but often attributed to Albert Einstein

1
Extensive Review
Unless otherwise directed by our clients, we provide an extensive review of an organization’s entire cost structure including underlying vendors, people, and processes. We do so recognizing that each company is too unique to simply compare industry benchmarks and metrics. Through extensive analysis and working with client leadership and key employees, we collectively gain an understanding of challenges and opportunities.

Comprehensive Solution
Through review and interaction with our clients, we develop a customized comprehensive solution that reflects each organization’s priorities, objectives, and timelines. The solution considers the potential benefit of the outcome, level of effort, cost of implementation, and transition risks. This allows our clients to make informed decisions regarding transforming the organization.

Facilitate Change
Every organization has a different level of capacity and capability. Ideally, our clients lead the implementation of the comprehensive solution, and we remain ready to lend our experience and expertise as needed. In some cases, we provide a higher level of oversight of the implementation effort or even manage the effort in its entirety.

Build Independence
Unlike many consulting firms, our goal is never to become a permanent fixture at our clients. Instead, we strive to help the client build the internal capabilities necessary to handle ongoing cost management efforts without our involvement. In that way, our clients not only benefit from implementing the comprehensive plan but perpetuate the underlying principles to ensure sustained efficiency thereafter.
