Faster Quotes. Margins You Can Trust.
Build accurate quotes in minutes with profitable pricing that works.
This Isn't Consulting
Consultants give you a report and wish you luck. Full-time exec hires take six months to find and cost $200K+. We're operators who show up, do the work, and leave when it's done. Engage us by the hour, by the project, or as a fractional leader. No bloated scope. No long-term commitment.
20-70% Cost Savings
Versus full-time hire
Immediate Impact
Start next week, not next quarter
Zero Long-Term Risk
Adjust as needs change
Better Than Full-Time
Focused only on what matters
Leadership & Transformation
We execute change that works and leave when you're ready.
Opening Problem Statement
"We were losing margin and credibility with our most important customers. We couldn't justify our pricing because we didn't trust it ourselves."
That's what the GM of a $30M+ contract manufacturer told us before we started.
The Transformation
We show up, diagnose what's broken, and fix it. Your team works alongside us so they can run it when we're done.
Weeks 1-2: Assessment and Early Wins
We map your quote process end-to-end, find where deals stall and margins leak, and start fixing while building the bigger plan.
Outcome: Visible progress before the first invoice.
Weeks 3-8: Core Transformation
We rebuild the quoting and pricing systems that aren't working. Standardized pricing logic. Quote workflows that don't bottleneck through one person. Scope documentation baked into every quote.
Outcomes: Quoting is easier and faster. Margins visible. Pricing defensible.
Weeks 9-12: Sustainability and Handoff
We build the operating rhythm: quote pipeline reviews, margin dashboards, clear ownership when quotes stall.
Outcome: Your team runs it. You decide what's next: scale back, move on, or tackle the next transformation with VeritOps.
What the GM said:
"We can see our P&L by manufacturing cell, customer, product line. We make more confident investment decisions and negotiate more effectively."
Real Example
The Situation:
$30M+ contract manufacturer. Defense and commercial customers. Quotes took weeks. Faster competitors were winning deals before they could respond. Pricing was gut feel — no one knew which jobs actually made money. Every quote had to pass through the senior engineer or risk going out wrong.
The Engagement:
16 hours per week over 3 months
The Work:
Found where quotes were getting stuck and removed the bottlenecks slowing everything down
Extracted the senior estimator's knowledge and turned it into pricing logic, rules, and guardrails the whole team could use
Tightened up contract management so scope was locked before work started and every order tied back to documented assumptions
Built margin visibility for their existing pipeline and outstanding quotes
The Results:
Quote speed and quality drove +32% win rate and +15% price increase across the business.
Senior resources back to value-add instead of reviewing every quote
Predictable pipeline margins for the first time
