Utilization & realization
Measure and manage the rates that actually drive firm profitability.
Industry · Professional Services
A fractional CFO who finds the profit in your billable hours.
Realization, utilization, work-in-progress and partner economics decide your profit — long before the P&L shows it. I make them visible and manageable.
- Firm economics visible
- Predictable profit
The problem
Profit hidden in the timesheets.
Strong revenue can still mean weak profit when realization slips, WIP ages, and utilization is not managed. The numbers that decide your margin live below the P&L.
What I help with
The numbers under your P&L.
WIP & billing
Turn work-in-progress into invoices faster and stop revenue leaking in the gaps.
Profitability & partner economics
Profit by client, service and team — plus partner comp that aligns with the numbers.
