Grow
Commissioning, pricing, tenders, second locations and acquisitions. Work that starts with what an hour of care actually costs you to deliver, and ends with a business somebody would want to buy.
Not the headline wage. The wage plus employer contributions, holiday accrual, sickness cover, travel time, mileage, training days, supervision hours, rota inefficiency and the office cost of arranging all of it. When we rebuild that number with an operator, it is almost always higher than the rate they have been accepting.
That single figure changes everything downstream. It tells you which contracts to bid for and which to walk away from, what a private client should be charged, whether a second location can carry its own overhead, and what a buyer will eventually pay you.
We do this work in the open, with you, using your own rotas and payroll rather than sector averages. Then we help you go and win the business the model says you should be winning.
Our flagship engagement. A full cost-to-serve model, a rate card you can defend in a commissioning meeting, and a contribution analysis by contract, package and location.
Providers usually arrive because they are busy and still not making money. The two are related more often than not.
Start with pricingCost-to-serve modelling, rate negotiation and a contribution view by contract so you know which work is worth having.
Bid writing and framework applications from people who understand how the answers are scored and where marks are quietly lost.
Variation applications, staffing structures and the governance that has to exist before a group stops depending on one person.
Positioning, pricing and enquiry handling for providers moving away from local authority dependence.
Growing by buying rather than building, with the diligence done before you fall in love with the deal.
Two to three years of deliberate preparation so the business is saleable at a proper multiple rather than a distressed one.
