How We’ve Nurtured Client Success
Uncovering project-specific
profitability
A government contractor servicing the healthcare industry wanted to know her wrap rate to build confidence that she was bidding competitively in her proposals without eroding margins. By assessing her cost of labor using payroll and timekeeping details, NPS helped build visibility into her project profitability and utilization to better manage both her sales process and her people.
Anticipating labor cost
fluctuations
A high-end website development firm frequently felt the crunch of needing to hire rapidly when projects surged, along with the payroll expenses that came along with that, well before invoices could go out the door. We developed a project forecasting tool that listed labor needs and associated costs so that he and his team knew how much cash they needed and when they needed it before they even began looking for talent.
Forecasting cash out for
subcontractors
A tax credit specialist specializing in the quick service restaurant industry subcontracted another firm to help clients nationwide to take advantage of the Employee Retention Tax Credit. But due to delays in IRS payments, clients were slow to pay invoices. By projecting collections from all revenue streams, we helped the client remain current with their subcontractor, while still funding higher taxes and owners’ distributions.
