Every industry leaks money in a different place. We help you find yours.
From mine haul trucks to courier vans, the cost drivers change with the sector. We tailor the work to what makes money, and loses it, in yours.
Transport & Logistics
Margins this thin leave no room for a leaking truck.
In road freight, a few cents per kilometre decides whether a contract makes money. We help you see which routes, vehicles and customers earn their keep, and which ones quietly don’t.
Where the money leaks
- Fuel and tyre costs that vary wildly between near-identical trucks
- Empty running and idle time that never shows up in a report
- Contracts priced on averages nobody has tested
What changes
- Cost per kilometre you can trust, down to the vehicle and the lane
- Contracts quoted and renewed with real numbers behind them
- Higher utilisation from the fleet you already own
Mining
Heavy equipment, remote sites and no patience for unplanned downtime.
When a haul truck or support vehicle sits idle, production waits with it. We focus on keeping equipment available, safe and cost-controlled, where every breakdown is expensive.
Where the money leaks
- Breakdowns on remote sites where every repair costs more
- Bulk fuel with little visibility of where it actually goes
- Light-vehicle and contractor fleets nobody is measuring
What changes
- More equipment available when production needs it
- Fuel accountability from bulk storage to the vehicle
- A defensible view of fleet cost for operations and finance
Construction
Equipment that moves between sites, and costs that follow it.
Plant, trucks and bakkies spread across projects are hard to track and easy to overspend on. We help you learn what each machine really costs and whether it’s earning its place on the job.
Where the money leaks
- Plant hired in while your own sits idle on another site
- Repair and fuel costs that can’t be tied to a project
- Operators with no view of how their habits drive cost
What changes
- True running cost per machine and per project, for sharper tenders
- Fewer hire-ins and better use of the plant you own
- Site managers who can see and own their fleet costs
Courier
Every drop counts, so every wasted stop does too.
Courier economics are won on drops per hour. We help you fit more deliveries into each route, keep vans on the road and protect delivery promises without adding vehicles.
Where the money leaks
- Stop sequencing that adds kilometres every single day
- Driver time lost between stops and at the depot
- Small vehicles with repeat repairs and heavy wear
What changes
- More drops per route and per driver-hour
- More dependable delivery windows and fewer late drops
- A lower cost for every parcel you move
Retail
Get stock to the shelf without letting the supply chain eat the margin.
For a retailer, the fleet and distribution network are a hidden cost of sale. We show you what it really costs to serve each store and where the network can run leaner.
Where the money leaks
- Store deliveries that run part-empty or arrive off schedule
- In-house and outsourced transport that’s never been compared fairly
- Peak-season costs that surprise you every year
What changes
- A true cost to serve for every store and route
- A fair comparison of in-house versus outsourced transport
- A network that flexes for peak without panic spending
Manufacturing
Keep the line fed and the finished goods moving.
Inbound materials and outbound product both depend on transport that runs on time. We look at the fleet and logistics around your plant so delays and costs stop spilling onto the production line.
Where the money leaks
- Late inbound deliveries that stall production
- Loading and internal transport that nobody has ever timed
- Plant vehicles maintained by habit rather than data
What changes
- Dependable inbound and outbound movements
- Work standards for loading, handling and internal transport
- A lower cost for every tonne or unit you move
Warehousing
Throughput is won on the floor and at the dock.
In a warehouse, minutes lost on every task add up to headcount you didn’t need. We show how work really flows through receiving, picking and dispatch, and where capacity is hiding.
Where the money leaks
- Trucks waiting to load or offload at a congested dock
- Picking and handling targets set by gut feel
- Overtime used to cover problems that are really about flow
What changes
- Realistic productivity standards your team accepts
- Shorter truck turnaround at the dock
- Staffing that follows demand instead of chasing it
Government
Public money demands public accountability.
Municipal, provincial and state fleets are held to a higher standard of proof. We give you independent, well-documented findings you can stand behind in front of auditors, councillors and the public.
Where the money leaks
- Ageing vehicles whose repair bills outrun their value
- Fuel and maintenance spend without a clear audit trail
- Fleet decisions made without independent evidence
What changes
- Independent reporting that stands up to scrutiny
- Clear criteria for repair, replace or retire decisions
- Better service delivery from the vehicles you already have
Every fleet pulls the same four levers: fuel, maintenance, routes and people. Let’s find yours.
