Executive Insight
In the Maximus voiceThis is a strong business with one expensive blind spot. The revenue engine is in control — demand and sales discipline are not the problem. The drag sits downstream, where the least-instrumented systems live: job-level margin is confirmed too late to act on, added scope walks off storm jobs unbilled, and cash ages in receivables with no cadence to recover it. Individually each looks like a small operational habit. Correlated across all six centers, they compound into roughly 3.1 points of gross margin — about $688,000 a year. None of it requires more sales or harder work. It requires controls. That is precisely what the Executive Review is built to install.

Why the Executive Review has authorityExecutive Review
The diagnostic has named and priced the problem. The Executive Review is the live walk-through that validates these figures against your full data set and lays out the 90-day plan to install the cash, job-costing, and systems controls that convert the leak into recovered margin. Its authority comes from this: every number traces back to a specific command center and a specific finding — nothing is asserted, everything is sourced.
