Value maps for manufacturing transformation.
Score a portfolio of operational improvements against your company's real financial baseline. Every dollar of impact traceable to a specific measure, link, and finance line. Built for the project team that does the analysis and the CFO that signs off on it.

The concept
A value map is a portfolio of operational changes, scored against a real financial baseline.
The math chain
Use case → measure → finance line → EBITDA. Each link in the chain is named, weighted, and inspectable. No black boxes.
The financial anchor
Industry-typical defaults pre-fill the baseline at your revenue scale. Override the accounts where you have actuals. Save an immutable snapshot the math runs against.
The transparency contract
Every contribution is auditable to its raw inputs and every intermediate the engine applied. A CFO can challenge a single link without unwinding the whole answer.
Who uses it
Built for the team that owns transformation.
The CFO is the consumer. The project team is the operator. ValueMaps gives each of them the surface they need on the same underlying model.
Project team
Run the analysis
Continuous-improvement leads, transformation PMs, digital-ops engineers. Build the baseline, scope the portfolio, walk every measure to every finance line, refine before the executive review.
Finance partner
Audit the math
FP&A or finance business-partner. Inspect every link, every multiplier, every assumption. Push back on a single contribution without unwinding the whole answer.
Executive sponsor
Approve the call
CFO, COO, or VP of Operations. See the headline. Understand what is driving it. Know which assumptions to push the team on.
What you can do today
Three surfaces, one shared model.
Baselines
Capture your company's financial state at the account level. Industry-typical defaults pre-fill at your revenue scale; override any account where you have actuals. Immutable snapshots so the math is reproducible.
Build a baselineAudit walk
Pick a portfolio of use cases or capabilities, set the scenario constraints, and trace every link from measure to finance line to EBITDA contribution. Outliers flagged. Every intermediate the engine touched is visible.
Open the audit walkScenarios
Save a baseline + selection + scenario as a named, reloadable artifact. Reopen, share with your team, or audit-trail the inputs that produced a given result.
View scenariosHow this is different
Not a spreadsheet, not a slide deck, not a consulting black box.
A canonical model, not a bespoke file
Hundreds of canonical measures, thousands of use case-to-measure impacts, an industry-typical financial layer for the baselines. Every project starts from the same library instead of a spreadsheet that lives in someone's downloads folder.
Transparent math, by design
The audit walk shows every link in the chain from operational change to dollar of EBITDA. Every multiplier the engine applied. Every assumption it depends on. Designed for a CFO to challenge.
Industry-anchored, not industry-blind
Hundreds of industry × finance-line typical baselines so even your defaults are calibrated to your industry. Override what you have actuals for; trust the rest.
Reproducible by design
Baselines are immutable snapshots; scenarios are named, reloadable artifacts. Any number that came out of valuemaps can be reproduced months later from the same baseline and the same selection. The CFO who signs off in October can re-verify in January.
Where to start
Two paths in. Pick the one that matches the work.
I want a quick estimate
Run the audit walk
No baseline setup. Pick capabilities or use cases, set your industry and revenue, and the engine scores against an industry-typical baseline. Order-of-magnitude envelope, every link inspectable.

Start with a baseline
Capture your company's financials as an immutable snapshot. Then walk a portfolio of use cases through the math against that specific baseline. Audit walk included.
