What it looks like when drift is found and fixed

Real engagements, identified by sector only. Each follows the same pattern: a contract that looked fine on paper, drift found in what it actually delivered, and value recovered — with numbers that stood up to the CFO and the board.

Mining client

~$21M/yr
saved on a single contract — about 50%, around $2M a month — without cutting the rate.
The arrangement
A mining client — an outsourced operation the mine depended on for output. Client not named.
What had drifted
The rate barely moved, but the volume needed to do the same job had crept up over the years — so cost per unit of output climbed, invisibly. Month-to-month noise in the operation hid the trend.
What we found
The commercial root cause was the model, not the rates. Re-tendering hadn't touched it, and switching suppliers had only changed the logo.
The outcome
The commercial model was reset; ~50% of the cost came out, reconciled to the P&L. The contractor's margins improved too.

We quantify exposure and recover value, reconciled to the P&L; we don't promise guaranteed savings. Clients are identified by sector only — we don't name them or tie a named client to a specific result.
