What This Engine Does
Most lower mid-market SaaS cost structures were not designed — they accumulated. Services creep, vendor sprawl, unaudited onshore engineering, and cloud spend that outpaces revenue compound into a business that looks like software but operates on services economics.
Three components: Offshore Substitution restructures engineering through a global delivery model, not a vendor relationship. AI Automation deploys internal AI for productivity and margin. Vendor Compression rationalizes the SaaS stack and installs procurement governance. Together they typically lift EBITDA margins 15–30 points over an 18-month rebuild.
