TIMEFRAME
AND COST
A complex analysis
has been refined into a relatively simple process that is both efficient
and effective. The bulk of the work is done by Edge rather than
the company and in a way that consumes very little senior management time.
Edges experience in this area is reflected in both the speed
with which analysis can be completed and the cost of the program.
The process has a clear timetable and scope of operation, includes
an implementation methodology driven by Edge and is offered at a fixed
cost with a performance guarantee.
Analysis takes four days on-site
and consumes little senior management time.
Fieldwork can usually be completed
in a 30-day timeframe without disrupting company operations.
Development and finalization
of the action plan to be presented to the management team takes a further
15 days.
Regular follow up meetings
extend until all the agreed actions have been implemented.
The fee structure depends upon
the complexity of the engagement, and is established at the initial orientation
meeting. It is usually in the range of $12,500 to $25,000.
If the implementation of agreed
recommendations does not cover the cost of the Company Tune Up
within twelve months, the difference will be refunded.
The result is a top to bottom analysis of the company and a written operational
plan that will be implemented. Edge has found that businesses
typically save at least three times the cost of the Company Tune Up in
the first year.
