Cost Transparency
Understand the balance between running, growing and transforming the business.
Most organisations can report technology spend by cost centre. Few can show what that spend buys service by service, or whether it is running the business, growing it or transforming it. That split says something real about where a business sits: heavy on run spend and light on the rest usually means standing still, while a shift towards growth and transformation usually means investing in what comes next. We map spend to services, classify it as run, grow or transform, and benchmark the result against a validated peer set, so leaders can see not just today’s split but whether it matches the business they are trying to become.
Overspending on keeping the lights on, constrains the capacity to innovate and transform. Funding, not ambition, becomes the limit.
THE PAYOFF
Find and remove funding bottlenecks before they stall your change agenda.

The people who built or sold a system are not the ones who should say it is worth the money. We are the outside check, on an organisation’s own systems or on a vendor’s claims. We measure the size of the work, before, during or after delivery, and set it against benchmarks, so the question becomes a number a board or funder can trust, without disrupting the team running the platform.
A real answer, not a reassurance.
Vendor claims tested, not taken on trust.
Size measured, not claimed.
Accept a vendor’s price without independent testing, and a buyer is exposed to the fat tail: roughly 1 in 6 IT projects in the study was a Black Swan, with an average cost overrun of 200%.
THE PAYOFF
Avoid the fat tail. Know whether the price is fair before you sign.

Estimate Check

An estimate is the first promise a project makes. We test it against Quantimetrics benchmarks from comparable projects, measuring the scope upfront where needed. We then calibrate the estimate and set contingency that reflects how similar projects have actually performed, not what was hoped for.
THE PAYOFF
Estimates that hold up under scrutiny, before the first commitment is made.

Troubled projects rarely fail overnight. They drift, and the warning signs show up long before a status report turns red. We check whether the original estimate was ever realistic and give sponsors an outside read early enough to act.
Projects slip before they overspend, because time is where uncertainty gets absorbed first, so schedule movement is the earliest warning and the best moment for an outside read.
THE PAYOFF
Act while it still costs little, before a slipping project becomes a failing one.

Project Assurance
Cost modelling and independent assurance for any project or platform transformation, before commitment or while it runs, so the target gets hit, not just tracked.
Every project or platform transformation starts with a promise on scope, time and budget. We test whether it can be kept, before commitment and while it runs. We build the cost model behind the business case and track it against real spend. We assess capability and capacity to deliver, and whether suppliers, in-house or external, are on track or over-promising. For platforms, we also test whether the spend is justified by scale and complexity, whether it builds an enduring asset, and whether the economics hold as it grows. Throughout delivery, we watch for early warning signs of obstacles, so problems surface while they are still cheap to fix. We provide an independent view, not a reassurance.

Defect counts on their own tell you little unless they are measured against the size of what was actually built. We measure defects per standardised unit of scope across the delivery lifecycle, so testing gaps, process maturity and fault-prone areas show up before they become production incidents.
Counting defects isn’t enough. Size them.
THE PAYOFF
Catch testing gaps before production.

Delivery Benchmark
Speed, cost, quality and efficiency measured against objective benchmarks, for one project or a whole portfolio.
What was delivered is measured, so results can be compared fairly. Speed, cost, quality and efficiency are then calibrated against comparable projects. The result shows where delivery really stands and where the best opportunities to improve are.
THE PAYOFF
Most organisations judge delivery by the last project or by opinion. Calibrate delivery against evidence, so improvement goes where it counts.

Before you can trust a cost or time estimate, you need to know how big the job really is. We size software the way a quantity surveyor sizes a building: objectively, consistently, and independent of whoever is doing the work. Cost, schedule and the value delivered are then based on a real number, not a guess dressed up as one.
Agree the size before you agree the price.
THE PAYOFF
Estimates that stand up to challenge.
