Labor, materials, and overhead allocated the way the shop floor actually runs — so pricing decisions are based on real unit economics, not a rough blended average.
What each product really costs to make, and where margin leaks on the floor — refreshed on your reporting cycle: weekly, or as often as nightly.
Tracked by product line rather than one blended plant-wide average, so pricing reflects what a product actually costs to make.
Fixed overhead applied to production compared with overhead actually incurred — under-absorbed overhead is the number that reveals whether a slow month is quietly eroding margin.
Value lost to defects and rework, tracked as a percentage of production cost rather than buried in COGS.
Actual labor hours compared with standard hours for the output produced, priced at the standard rate — surfacing efficiency drift before it shows up in a shrinking margin.
How quickly raw materials and finished goods convert to sales, paired with rotating cycle counts that test the perpetual inventory records against what’s on the shelf — the gap tells you what’s not moving, and what may have walked out the back door.
Equipment financing structured and tracked as part of the forecast, not a surprise that shows up after the purchase.
A 30-minute call at no cost: how you get your numbers today, what you wish you knew sooner, and whether an engagement makes sense.
