Actual order or project margin
See margin loss while there is still time to act.
Proposal to explore
Who it is for: Finance directors, project leaders and commercial directors.
The work to address
Extra purchases, rework, delivery and overtime erode the margin agreed at sale. The loss is discovered after completion.
Inputs
Approved estimates, purchases, work completed, material consumption, delivery, changes and expected remaining costs.
Expected outcome
A view of where an order loses profit and which costs are still ahead.
How the process could work
A proposed workflow. We validate actions, connections and permissions against your data before launch.
Compare the plan with the expected outcome
Link the approved estimate to purchases, work, consumption, delivery and order changes. Compare planned, actual and expected future costs.
Investigate variances
Show the documents and events behind a variance. Prepare a question for the responsible person and calculate its consequences.
What to verify before launch
The human decision
Price changes, extra work, disputed cost allocation and customer negotiation.
What to verify before launch
Start with one type of order or project. Agree cost components and allocation of shared expenses.
Solution boundaries
Without an agreed method and costs linked to orders, margin is incomplete. Unallocated amounts must remain visible.
How to assess results
Time to detect overruns, cost coverage and final margin forecast accuracy.
Connecting departments
Connect sales commitments to procurement and actual work performed.
What our engineer configures
We start with a limited area. Our engineer configures BusinessOS around your rules, connects the necessary systems and stays to support and develop the solution.
Cost attribution, actual cost sources, variance thresholds and change review rules.
