Portfolio companies can report green until they don't. Sona8 asks the people doing the work, the same way in every company.

A man with a beard in profile, looking up
“The plan assumes a system we haven't rolled out yet.”
A woman with short grey curls in a green blazer, smiling
“Two more people in pricing would hit the target.”

See Sona8 in a minute.

  • Regular check-ins on the value creation plan, so its measures get delivered

  • A first diagnostic after closing, as input for the 100 day plan

  • Other transformation work, from add on integration to carve outs

  • Initiative status with the blockers named

  • Comparisons across portfolio companies

  • Movement between check-ins

What the status report leaves out.

Example only, not a client result. Three measures from one value creation plan, next to what the people delivering them said.

Measure, as reportedIn the interviewsNext step

Central purchasing for packaging

Done
Not used

The framework contract is signed, but two of three plants still order from local suppliers. The new supplier is not set up in SAP.

Create the supplier in SAP this week.

Pricing tool for quotes

Live
Not used

Many reps still quote in Excel, because the tool does not show customer rebates.

Load the rebate table, then switch off Excel quotes.

Cross selling with the add on

On track
Blocked

Compliance has not cleared sharing customer data between the two companies, so no joint customer visit has happened yet.

Sign the data sharing agreement by 15 November.

Across one value creation plan, Sona8 covers every initiative down to its measures and helps make sure the potential is realised.

Talk to the interviewer.

Tell it which part of the plan you own. It will ask whether the number behind it has moved.
