Your

Equitable Cost

Allocation Practice

Your

Strategic Planning

Practice

Did somebody mention cost allocation?

Just kidding. This is actually pretty important.

If strategic planning is meant to secure your company’s future

viability, and …

… cost allocation is a measure of affordability, then …

… equitable cost allocation is a strategic imperative.

And yes … we call it “equitable” cost allocation for a reason.

Every business unit pays their share of operations and administrative cost ...

… in a manner that is fair, reasonable, and consistently

applied.

Without equitable cost allocation, your strategic plan

will be easy to write.

… because your business might be out of business.
