Why this exists

Many mid-market businesses can feel the drag but cannot yet quantify it. The Executive Discovery Scan bridges that gap with senior practitioners who plug in quickly, frame the real issue, and propose what to do next without hiding behind a long advisory cycle.

It is the sharp, paid entry point for C-suite teams and board sponsors who need a fast, credible commercial view before committing to a larger diagnostic or program.

The question to ask is - what are the delays costing, rather than whether it is worth it. For a £20m business, 3 months of delay typically costs between £400k–£1.4m in EBITDA.

How it works

Days 1–2: SLT interviews

Senior practitioner conducts structured interviews across the leadership team to surface constraints and validate the commercial picture.

Days 3–4: Data analysis

Quantitative analysis of financial, operational, and delivery data to size each constraint by estimated EBITDA impact.

Day 5: Constraints validated

Findings validated with a second senior practitioner. Three 90-day action scenarios drafted with trade-offs and risks.
