SCENARIO 1 — PROSPECTING
Target Account: The Clancy Group
I've worked with firms just like Clancy — the challenge isn't winning work, it's controlling what happens to margin once delivery starts.
SCENARIO 1 — PROSPECTING
Value & Positioning
Not as software. As a way to bring control and visibility to live project delivery and commercial performance across every Clancy contract.
What Chime Gives Clancy
Real-time visibility across all live infrastructure projects
Earlier identification of margin risk — before it becomes a loss
Standardised commercial reporting across frameworks
Less reliance on fragmented spreadsheets and manual tracking
Faster, more confident leadership decisions
What This Means in Practice for Clancy
Avoided project overruns on complex utility contracts
Improved margin protection across multiple simultaneous jobs
Reduced reporting overhead for PMs and commercial teams
Leadership gets commercial clarity without chasing data
If you can see problems earlier, you can protect margin before it disappears.
SECTION 3 — SCENARIO 2: CLOSING
Formal Proposal
SECTION 3 — SCENARIO 2: CLOSING
ROI & The Close
The ROI Narrative
One avoided project overrun covers the annual cost
Small margin improvement across multiple jobs = significant annual return
Time saved across PMs improves operational efficiency immediately
How I Close
"Based on everything we've discussed — if this gives you better visibility and protects margin in real time, is this something you'd want to move forward with?"
Would it make more sense to get started this month or next month?
If Pricing Is Challenged
I don't discount immediately
I re-anchor to cost of inaction
I explore concerns before reacting
I offer value adds — not price cuts
