For CFOs, COOs and operating partners

Find out whether a cost programme would actually hold in your business.

Twelve questions on the conditions that decide whether cost comes out and stays out. You get a scored assessment against five dimensions, with the specific gaps that would undermine a programme 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

Five dimensions, 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.

01

Cost visibility

Whether cost can be seen at the level decisions are actually made.

02

Ownership and accountability

Whether named people carry the number, and whether it reaches their budget.

03

Third-party spend

Control of the largest single lever in most cost bases.

04

Delivery discipline

Whether the organisation can carry a programme while running the business.

05

Whether savings hold
