A better way
The Arkonas Directors designed our consulting business to deliver fast results. The team has taken the best from their years of corporate consultancy experience to be modern performance management consultants focused on delivering results to the bottom line.
As modern performance management practitioners, our comprehensive process is designed around best practices leveraging software, big data, experience, and proprietary knowledge to deliver business insights and process improvements without disrupting the strategy of the business.
Most companies are aware of their profitability in general terms but lack insight into how each product, service, customer, channel or region contributes to the profitability of the business. The average percentage of General and Administrative expenses is 20-35% of total costs and in many cases organizations do not assign these expenses to products, services, and customers and as a result, they make decisions based on incomplete data.
