The Same Class of Algorithms as the FTSE Use. Interactive Modeling of Your Company's Profitability. Accurate Sales Forecasting. Optimisation of Sales and Marketing.
We Optimise the Profits of Companies using the same maths and models as the FTSE uses to maximize their profits by Billions.
Our Market: There are 127,000 companies in our target market, the so-called Middle Market. These are Companies turning over roughly £2 Million to about £200 Million. Almost none of you have access to optimisation maths and algorithms. We can sup[ply this service at a cost which will be a fraction of the profits it can generate. If it can't work for you, our half day free consultancy will show that and you will incur no costs.
We invite you to join in with the FTSE. If you want to know why ask us why BP or Ocado have an entire business unit devoted to our Maths. In comparison to them, our charges are modest and are often paid for in days or weeks of winning a contract.
We start off with something as simple as your sales plan. But instead of the sales value of a product or service you sell, we use the profit multiplied by the number you expect to sell in a month or a week - you choose. You can start off by using your numbers from your sales plan - that proves that your maths works. After that, you leave the numbers to us. We calculate the most profitable mix of sales. Then we look at what stops you from making and selling as much as you would like and retiring rich, in a year!
We use high-level maths to help you to rearrange your product offering, such that you achieve the highest possible profits. The results will surprise you and may disturb you.
You have probably considered scrapping a product because it is a pain to make, but it appears to make a contribution. But does it? Read on, it probably doesn't-----
We consult and work with you to discover your aspirations and your limitations. Starting with your sales plan, we ask you for the profit on every product, service or project you sell. We also explore what stops you from making or selling as much as you want to and making a fortune. Labour is a good starter. Working Capital, Warehousing, Test Space, Phone Lines, Bench Space, Raw materials - - these are all considerations. This often pays for the initial service we offer without us running a single high-level equation.
We produce a model with which you can interact. It shows you how all your products interact to produce your profit. It produces radical and subtle insights. You have probably considered dropping a product because it is a pain in the backside to make or sell. But, according to the management accounts, it still makes a contribution to sales turnover and to company profit. But does it? It may do this by stealing resources which could be better used for making and selling products which are far more profitable.
By directing sales effort to those and away from the former, you effectively scrap that product over time. Or if you feel brave, you could just discontinue it. Which you choose is up to you, but our model will show you the best way.
We Specialise in the Optimisation of Profits. We Optimise your Product or Service Offering. To do that we need to Optimise Sales and Marketing to sell a revised, optimised product line-up. And to do that, we need to sort out Sales Forecasting so that it is credible: Click below for more.
We start with your sales plan and the profits on you make on each item or service you sell. We ask for a few constraints which limit you. Labour is a good starter, but there are many more. Then we run your sales plan against a constraint and the insights begin - - -
The same algorithm which produces an optimisation of profit will also produce a minimization of costs. Consider any operation involving blending. What is the lowest cost mix of feedstocks needed to - - -
Most sales forecasts are a work of fantasy. We change that so that production can manufacture the sales forecast. We also optimise the sales plan and get marketing to drive the sales team and - - -
English China Clays.
We started with English China Clays (ECC) and the Simutron Analogue Computer. Hugh Walton was the inventor of the computer and is the father of iSimutron Ltd. By 1974, Hugh had bravely taken on consultancy for ECC to find out why their profits had dived so. He was brave because they might collapse and he might not get paid. He discovered the answer at the pit-face on day one and in the process solved a simmering pay dispute. They needed a pit based clay blend optimiser and to best use their labour - including overtime!
They needed a hands-on instantly accessible and interactive blend-cost minimisation tool. It worked and returned them, in today's money £18.7 Million a year. We continue to offer that service even though the last Analogue Simutron Machine was returned in 2007.
