Profitability Model<\/h2><\/div>
<\/p>\n

Our model offers management a Visibility <\/strong>of its pocket margin (profitability) at a product, customer order, and client level. The scope of our work covers sales, manufacturing and distribution including, sourcing, transportation, and warehousing. With this approach, the user has visibility of what most contributes or erodes profitability considering the execution of the commercial model and supply chain.<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”top” type=”vc_default” margin_top=”-50″ css=”.vc_custom_1643829272523{padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 10px !important;}” el_id=”Design”][vc_column width=”7\/12″ css=”.vc_custom_1697145262407{margin-right: 50px !important;}”]

Design<\/h2><\/div>
<\/p>\n

Our approach begins with the development of a revenue and cost waterfall. For each silo of the value chain calculations and data sources are defined with the client. It is important to note how the data collection and cleansing phase typically takes a high percentage of time for the model development. As well, client participation from finance, sales and operations are all essential for a successful project.<\/div><\/div>

Project deliverables include, a working profitability model with pocket margin Visibility<\/strong> of profitability, based on a common platform of information across the organization, supported by reports and dashboards.<\/div><\/div>
