Gross profit, stock and procurement
Better buying discipline, stock routines and margin awareness so the commercial picture is easier to see and manage.
Mackintosh Projects / Dorset and UK
Make the day-to-day easier to run.
I help owners and managers get a firmer grip on the work behind the work: margin, purchasing, stock, EPOS, procedures and the changes that need to be adopted by a team.

What I work on
Get the parts of the operation in order.
Most improvements start with a practical irritant: a margin that is hard to read, a process that changes depending on who is doing it, or a system that is not helping the people who use it.
Systems, procedures and workflow
Clearer ways of working that give owners, managers and teams more consistency and day-to-day control.
Training, rollout and support
Turning a good idea into a usable change through practical implementation, clearer expectations and follow-through.
How I work
Start with what is getting in the way, then make the fix usable.
Look closely
Find the friction
Understand where visibility, process or controls are creating extra effort.
Put it in order
Build the working system
Set up routines, documentation and controls around the real problem.
Make it stick
Support the change
Help the team use the new approach in the flow of the working day.
The point of the work
Close to the work, careful with the detail.
The aim is not to add another layer of theory. It is to identify what is creating inconsistency, poor visibility or weak control, then leave the business with a stronger way of working.
Commercially grounded
Keep an eye on margin, process and the operational details that affect performance.
Practical by design
Build systems and changes that can be used properly on a busy day.
Flexible in scope
Work on one area, or follow a wider brief through the business.
Start with the problem
If something is getting in the way, let’s look at it.
