Operational and commercial review

What’s included

Where time goes, where work is duplicated and which systems could save you hours each week.

Contracts

Payment terms, risk, renewals and the commercial terms that affect your cash and profit.

Supplier terms

Pricing, credit terms and where there is room to renegotiate.

What to keep in-house and what to outsource, with a clear cost comparison.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from accounting?

Accounting tells you what happened. An operational and commercial review looks at why, and at what you can change in the way the business runs to improve the results.

Do you review legal contracts?

We review the commercial terms, such as pricing, payment terms and risk. For legal wording, we will recommend you speak to a solicitor.

What do I get at the end?

A written report with prioritised actions, a review meeting and follow-up support to put the changes in place.

How long does it take?

It depends on the size and complexity of the business. We agree the scope and timing at the start.
