Cost Control Training That Actually Works

Most businesses in Thailand lose money because their teams don't understand the real mechanics of cost management. We teach practical skills that finance departments actually use – not theory from outdated textbooks. Our autumn 2025 program starts with real cases from Bangkok and Samut Prakan companies.

Common Problems We Actually Fix

After working with 40+ businesses across Thailand, we've seen the same issues repeatedly. Here's what usually goes wrong and how we address it.

1

Teams Can't Spot Waste

Your staff sees numbers but misses patterns. They approve expenses without questioning if there's a cheaper alternative.

What we do: We train people to recognize specific red flags in vendor contracts and recurring costs. After three sessions, participants can identify waste in their own department budgets.
2

Budget Reviews Feel Pointless

Monthly meetings where everyone nods but nothing changes. The same overruns happen next quarter because nobody learned what caused them.

What we do: Participants learn a structured review method that traces problems to their source. We use real data from past mistakes – yours or similar companies.
3

Software Without Understanding

You bought expensive tools but staff only use 20% of features. Reports get generated and ignored.

What we do: We teach the logic behind cost tracking before touching software. Once people understand why certain data matters, they actually use the tools properly.
4

Department Silos Cost Money

Purchasing doesn't talk to operations. Same supplies get ordered twice. Bulk discounts get missed because nobody coordinates.

What we do: Cross-department workshops where teams map their actual workflows together. They see exactly where communication gaps create unnecessary expenses.
5

Cost Cuts That Backfire

Someone slashes budgets without understanding consequences. Quality drops, customers complain, and you spend more fixing problems.

What we do: We teach impact analysis – how to evaluate what happens downstream before making cuts. Participants practice on scenarios that mirror their industry.
6

No One Owns The Numbers

When costs rise, everyone points at someone else. Accountability vanishes because roles aren't clear.

What we do: We establish clear ownership frameworks during training. Each participant leaves knowing exactly which costs they should monitor and when to escalate.

Quick Wins You Can Use Immediately

  • Vendor comparison template that takes 10 minutes instead of two hours
  • Three questions that expose hidden fees in service contracts
  • Monthly cost review checklist that actually fits into busy schedules
  • Simple forecasting method that needs just last quarter's data
  • Department spending dashboard you can build in Excel
  • Negotiation framework for renegotiating with current suppliers
  • Waste audit process that any team member can run

These aren't complex systems. We focus on tools that work right away because most companies need immediate improvement while building longer-term capabilities.

Program Duration

Eight weeks with one half-day session per week. Flexible scheduling for operations that can't pause during business hours.

Starting September 2025

New cohorts begin monthly. We run sessions at our Samut Prakan location or at your office for groups of eight or more.

Maximum 12 participants per cohort. Smaller groups mean everyone gets direct feedback on their company's actual cost challenges.

Who Teaches These Sessions

We don't hire academics who've never managed a real budget. Our instructors spent years handling cost pressures in actual businesses before they started teaching. They've made mistakes, found solutions, and now share what actually worked.
