Unleashing Financial Resilience: A Success Story of Strategic Cost Reduction and Digital Transformation
Master limited partnership listed on the New York Stock Exchange that owns and runs midstream assets and whose objective is to build long-term value for their unit holders by generating increasing cash distributions via organic expansion, development projects, and acquisitions.
The drop in commodity prices was affecting our client’s bottom line and they had to quickly cut millions in costs to remain competitive.
The strategic financial transformation we implemented exceeded expectations. It delivered an impressive 170% of the initial goal for the current year reductions. But the success didn’t stop there. Overall, we achieved approximately 190% of the desired cost reduction targets. This significantly reduced the company’s financial pressure, allowing them to focus on their core operations and growth strategy.
This case demonstrates our strengths in financial and digital transformation. We used our multi-disciplinary approach to turn a pressing financial challenge into a strategic advantage, exceeding the set targets and reinforcing our client’s financial stability in a challenging market scenario.

In the wake of declining commodity prices that drastically impacted revenues, our client faced a pressing need for swift cost reduction. Their goal was an immediate reduction of $10 million within a 60-day period for the current fiscal year and a subsequent decrease of an additional $10 million on a run-rate basis within the subsequent 90 days. In essence, the task at hand was to implement a strategic financial transformation that could bolster their financial resilience swiftly.
In response to this challenge, we developed a comprehensive program focusing on two primary areas: adjusting fixed costs and scrutinizing third-party spend. The program also incorporated a flash report system for cost control, aimed at ensuring real-time monitoring and effectiveness of cost reduction measures.
Our unique multi-disciplinary approach was key to this strategy’s success. Leveraging cross-functional expertise from diverse domains including technology, business operations, supply chain, internal controls, and financial reporting, we created a robust framework to tackle the financial challenge. This synergy between digital transformation and financial strategy facilitated a holistic response to the cost reduction objective.
