Problem
Agency and consulting firms with 500-5,000 employees often experience margin erosion that is not visible until after delivery begins. Hidden effort by senior leaders, coordination overhead, and workforce intensity—collectively called "shadow labor"—are rarely tracked formally yet quietly drive down profitability, and traditional tools do not surface these risks early enough for leaders to act.
Solution
Margin Mix is a decision support system that helps agency and consulting leaders assess margin risk early by accounting for hidden effort, coordination overhead, and workforce intensity before delivery begins. Users describe the intended structure of an engagement through 17 judgment-based questions, and Margin Mix evaluates workforce intensity and shadow labor risk, delivering a clear margin-risk verdict with decision guidance. The system is designed as a decision support tool rather than a productivity tool, giving CEOs, CFOs, COOs, managing partners, and client leads a structured view of where margin risk is building in proposed engagements.
Target Audience
Primary users are CEOs, CFOs, COOs, managing partners, and client leads at agencies and consultancies with 500-5,000 employees where operational scale has outgrown intuitive margin management.
