SOUL Maintains Profit Margin with Precision:   This is an approach that begins when you first estimate the job and continues during your management of the related tasks or activities. Our SOUL methodology ensures that you are set to succeed from the beginning, can handle the unexpected and are being supported when the going gets tough. By combining SOUL problem solving methodology with a simple mathematical approach called “Average Performance Range and Index” (APRI) as a feedback mechanism to bids and awarded projects under a fixed price and cost plus award contract, managers have dramatically more control over bidding accuracy, meeting deliverables and satisfying customers. APRI gives you unprecedented ability to identify cost, schedule and quality issues months in advance, and to resolve these issues without incident, while maintaining profit goals. SOUL ensures that your bid is competitive and that you can keep you commitments the first time, making your customer very happy.

What’s the probability that you can meet your profit margin based on your current bid structure? During contract implementation, what deliverable statistically has the most risk of reducing your profit potential? Catalyst Technologies provides objective, calculated answers. From bid submission to program award and management, this proven solution allows contract and program managers to proactively identify and resolve cost overruns, schedule delays and quality issues, months in advance of their consequences – without burden to the leadership or workforce. It provides positive control to reduce labor costs and enhance a team’s ability to meet schedule – ensuring your profit margin is obtained.

A simple solution to increase corporate profits within Fixed Price and Award Fee contracts – and it’s available now. Our turn-key software approach is described below:

Over the last 20 years, Catalyst Technologies has been supporting organizations in the science of reliable implementation. The results have been accumulated in a breakthrough approach to reliably increase profit. The key, as described by Catalyst Technologies’ founder Bruce Nagy, is based on using a business indicator called “Average Performance Range and Index” (APRI) as a statistical feedback mechanism. Without it, proposal and implementation teams are limited to unnecessary risk taking, excessive guesswork and reactionary tactics – hindering profit opportunity, along with customer trust.

AVOIDING THE UNFORSEEN

Program and contract managers need calculated answers that are based on what’s essential to increase profit and award fees associated with contract obligations. Guesswork and reaction to unforeseen issues increases the risk of profit loss and customer trust.

Here’s what’s been said about the founder of this approach, Bruce Nagy …

“Simply put, Mr. Nagy’s technology is creative, innovative and effective.” Transformation Manager, US Defense Department
