We don't benchmark costs. We investigate why.
Most consultancies compare your FM costs to a market average and hand you a chart. We investigate the assumptions, contract structures and service gaps that drive the numbers in the first place.
- £40M+ saved for clients across FM and catering contracts
- 200+ tenders managed, evidence led from specification to award
- 100% independent, no supplier ties, no commission, ever

The numbers say fine. Your gut says otherwise.
- Your last benchmark said you are "in line with market", but the complaints have not stopped.
- You are renewing a contract and nobody can explain why costs have crept up for three years.
- You suspect you are paying for a service level you are not getting, but you cannot prove it.
The problem is not your numbers. It is that nobody has investigated what is behind them.
Every contract is treated like an investigation.
Our DICE method turns raw data into decisions that stick: verified at source, interpreted in context, challenged hard, then executed.
Discover
Invoices, service logs, SLAs, site visits. Every claim verified at source.
Interpret
Evidence read against contract terms, market rates and operational reality.
Challenge
Assumptions tested: ours, yours and your suppliers'.
Execute
From re-specification to tender to ongoing contract management.
A major UK bank asked whether its catering and hospitality contract offered value for money. The benchmark was only the start: over six months we worked with the client and the contractor on delivery, stakeholder experience and reporting. The result was a £250k reduction in annual subsidy and a measurably better service. Not just a lower bill.
