Cost visibility
Whether cost can be seen at the level decisions are actually made.
For CFOs, COOs and operating partners
Find out whether a cost program would last in your business.
Twelve questions on the conditions that decide whether cost comes out and stays out. You get a score against each dimension, with the specific gaps that would undermine a program before it starts.

About you
So the assessment can be addressed to you and sent through afterwards.
Where the assessment is sent. Not passed on to anyone.
Your answers stay on this device until you finish. Nothing is sent before then.
What is measured
Each dimension, scored independently.
A dimension you are not asked about is left out of your result rather than scored zero: the assessment reports on what it actually asked.
Ownership and accountability
Whether named people own the number, and whether it reaches their budget.
Third-party spend
Control of the largest single lever in most cost bases.
Delivery discipline
Whether the organisation can deliver a program while still running the business.
Whether savings are retained
