SUCCESS STORIES

Case Studies.

Cutting cost-to-serve without losing customers

A leading specialty chemicals manufacturer was over-investing in service levels its B2B customers didn't value, while under-delivering on the factors that drove retention. Cost-to-serve was rising, customer satisfaction remained flat, and leadership needed a fact-based way to realign priorities.

THE CHALLENGE

The client needed to stop over-investing in service levels its B2B customers didn’t value and realign priorities based on actual needs, to reduce rising cost-to-serve while maintaining customer satisfaction.

Thought Leadership

Your Product Portfolio is lying to you. Here's how to make it tell the truth.

Most B2B companies manage their product portfolios the same way they have for decades: spreadsheets full of margins, cost-plus pricing models, indexing off public benchmarks instead of measured value, conversations that stop at the procurement desk rather than reaching the people who actually use what's being bought, and gut instinct about which products "feel" like winners. But in a world of tariff shifts, volatile input costs, and increasingly sophisticated buyers, that approach is quietly bleeding value — and most leadership teams don't even realize it.

We have spent years working on this problem, and the uncomfortable truth is this: cost and margin data alone cannot tell you which products are actually worth investing in. They tell you what things cost. They don't tell you what customers value. That gap — between what you charge and what your customer is willing to pay — is where the real money lives.

The hidden cost crisis in Resources

Why Chemicals Companies Are Rethinking How They Spend on Their People

The Chemicals and Resources sector is no stranger to cost pressure. Commodity cycles, capital-intensive operations, and razor-thin margins have trained leaders to scrutinize every line of expenditure. Yet one of the largest cost centers in any Resources company remains stubbornly opaque: the workforce.

HR and total rewards budgets in the sector routinely represent 40 to 60 percent of controllable operating costs. And while companies have invested heavily in optimizing supply chains, equipment uptime, and energy efficiency, most are still designing employee rewards and benefits packages with the same blunt tools they relied on a decade ago: benchmarking surveys, broad demographic assumptions, and gut instinct.

The result? Billions spent on offerings employees don't actually value — and a widening gap between what companies pay and the engagement, retention, and performance they get in return. In an era when AI-driven analytics are transforming every other part of the business, the workforce equation is overdue for the same treatment.
