WINNING TOGETHER

Business Transformation & Profitability Improvement Use Cases

A $10B industrial services provider experienced declining EBITDA margins despite consistent revenue growth. Leadership lacked visibility into performance drivers across critical business functions.

Consultants conducted a cross-functional diagnostic to uncover cost leakage and operational inefficiencies. A comprehensive transformation approach was implemented, redesigning regional profit and loss structures and prioritizing strategic initiatives. They also established an internal transformation office to drive continued results.

The impacts included:

  • $42M in margin improvement within 12 months
  • Increased financial transparency through regional P&L ownership
  • Implemented performance scorecards across organizational functions

Realignment for PE-Backed Digital Media Company

A fast-scaling, PE-backed digital media company struggled with delivery inefficiencies and an outdated operating model, threatening investor confidence and future growth. Consultants assessed the business model, identifying disconnects between sales promises and delivery execution. By introducing a new delivery framework with standardized roles and workflows, the company transformed its operational performance. The intervention improved on-time delivery by 35% across core accounts, reduced delivery costs by 20%, and increased EBITDA margin by 5 points within two quarters.

Transforming a Culture to Make Risk a STARR

A financial institution faced challenges in adopting a three lines-of-defense (3LOD) model, with first-line business and support functions uncertain about their roles. Consultants led a series of brainstorming sessions to clarify expected behaviors, creating a memorable "Be a Risk STARR" campaign. The initiative resulted in comprehensive employee understanding through CEO introduction, coordinated communication blitz, peer recognition programs, and targeted training interventions.
