Production Cost Management

  • Our highly specialised production cost management service ensures our clients get the right production values at the best price.
  • It is implemented around five key pillars:
    • Contract compliance
    • Error checking
    • Fair pricing
    • Comparison to industry standards and
    • Opportunities for preferential third party negotiation.
  • Our Production Cost Management was introduced as we realised that:
    • Agencies were not charging clients according to agreed commercial terms;
    • Incorrect calculations and apparently minor errors were leading to significant losses;
    • Agency producers typically build in additional ‘fat’ for worst case scenarios when costing a job. AD-OPS ensures a more realistic and accurate costing;
    • Agencies were not drawing in three quotations, and typically using their own preferred suppliers. AD-OPS ensures that best practice is adhered to and procurement protocol is followed.
  • Through our Production Cost Management service we reduce risk for both our clients and their agencies.
