Course Description

While most firms focus on top-line growth, the most successful firms place equal if not greater importance on margin contribution. There are many factors that can impact margin and evolving trends, including alternative pricing models, alternative staffing models, and better overall processes to ensure that firms can make a profit on their engagements.

In this course, we will discuss the key KPIs and pain points related to the factors that can impact profit margin and present leading practices in each designed to improve the dollars you keep versus the time you spend on client engagements.

Learning Objectives:


  • Identify common issues and benchmark data related to firm profitability

  • Name leading practices in the better capture of time, WIP, and engagement management

  • Identify how firms can use evolving strategies such as outsourcing/offshoring, resource sharing, and value billing to improve margin contribution
