Protect the baseline
Keep tender, package and delivery budgets connected.
Commercial outcomes
Keep more of the margin you won.
I-Cost helps contractors identify leakage early, make better procurement decisions and recover legitimate project value.
Where value moves
Control the decisions that change the final margin.
Margin movement rarely comes from one dramatic event. It accumulates through late orders, supplier performance, site disruption, labour overspend and unrecovered change.
Compare before commitment
Understand commercial impact before issuing a purchase order.
See true supplier cost
Include failure, delay and additional handling in the decision.
Capture site impact
Record waste, downtime, returns and additional charges.
Recover change
Move instructions through pricing, submission and approval.
Improve visibility
Give managers a consistent view across every active project.
Commercial value
A small percentage can be a large number.
For a contractor turning over £10 million, protecting just 1% of margin represents £100,000 of potential commercial value.
