Run transformation commercially - using modelling, not guesswork.
Our proprietary commercial modelling platform is the key that unlocks everything.
SPECIALIST CONSULTING TOOLS - NOW AVAILABLE TO ALL
Commercial modelling - now available as a SaaS Product.
Invest is a commercial modelling software platform that uses a small number of data points to calculate realistic projections of cost, benefit, ROI and risk - so you can manage change commercially.
It and has been proven over more than 10 years in complex environments - and is now available as a product you can use directly.
The complexity is already solved. You just use it. Any org, any change system.

What is the Invest Commercial
Modelling Platform?
Most tools track tasks - not economics.
Some let you enter an ROI number.
But they don’t calculate it.
If ROI isn’t calculated, it’s a guess.
Real forecasting starts with the outputs you need:
time, cost, benefit, ROI, risk.
Then works backwards:
-
What data is needed
-
What formulas calculate it
That’s what Invest does.
A single, connected model - where every output is calculated and determanistic, not assumed.
Example Formula
Inputs - Simple, summary-level data only.
The formulas are complex but the data needed to drive them is simple - just ~40 data points most organisations already have. If it’s not readily available, we help you define it and bring it together. The power isn’t in the data. It’s in how it’s connected and calculated.
Commercial Outcomes
Deliverables/EPICs & Estimates
Teams & Costs
~40 basic data components
are all that is needed to see the full commercial picture.
The model works as a live business-case, restated every 2–4 weeks. Most of it stays stable. Updates come from the backlog - with the model integrated with tools like Jira. So time is spent on insight, decisions, and actions - not admin.
Maintenance: ~50% less effort than traditional PMO.
Outputs - Steer Transformation Commercially.
Models calculate the answer - so you can steer transformation commercially from beginning to end.
Our models typically forecast within ±10% - built on real data and corrected for human optimism.
They show the full commercial picture - cost, benefit, ROI, and risk - not just milestones and spend.
They allow you to prioritise by value across a portfolio - comparing initiatives on a true like-for-like basis, in pounds and pence.
They provide early warning of the gap between expectation and reality - so you can act before it becomes a problem.
Outcome Projections
See when outcomes will be realised - and early warning of any gap between expectation and reality.
Benefit Projections
See when benefits in £&P are likely to be realised - and how they are trending over time.
Cost Projections
See realistic cost projections, based on realistic build period.
ROI Projections
See how cost and benefit combine over time — including break-even point and overall return.
Risk/Reward Projections
See the level of risk you are carrying - and the upside it enables.
Scope-level ROI
See all work across the full time horizon - and how it contributes to outcomes and ROI.
Time Projections
See realistic timeframes, based scope + estimates, and adjusted for learned velocity.
Value Path Visualisation
See how work connects to value - and how delivery drives improvement to the bottom line.
Maturity Wheels
See the maturity path of the transformation — from current state to target state.
Learned Velocity
See actual delivery performance vs target throughput.
Resource Utilisation
See the maturity path of the transformation — from current state to target state.
Delivery Burn-Up
See actual delivery performance vs target throughput.
Scenario Modelling
Test different options — and see how changes impact cost, time, ROI, and risk.
Snapshot Building
See how the model has changed over time - and the impact of decisions made.
FAQs
Commercial Modelling FAQs.
Isn’t this too advanced?
It may look it - but it’s simpler than what you do today. This is basic project data, just structured and connected properly.
We don’t have the data
This is the most basic level of project data. If you don’t have it, you should.
If something is missing, we help you define it quickly.
We’re too busy to implement something like this
That’s exactly the problem this solves.
It removes ~50% of PMO admin — so time is spent on insights, scenario modelling, and decision-making, not reporting.
We already use tools like Jira and reporting dashboards
Those tools track activity. They don’t calculate the answer - so they rely on people knowing it, In reality, they don’t - forecasts are often 100–200% out.
They also only show part of the picture. This model completes it — cost, benefit, ROI, and risk together.
How do I know the outputs are accurate?
Built on real scope, capacity, and delivery performance - corrected for human optimism. Typically within ±10%.
Is this just another reporting layer?
No. This calculates what will happen - not what has happened.
Will this take a long time to set up?
Within ~20 days, you can have a proven, tailored model - ready to use.
A business case is static - it describes what you want to happen. Reality changes. Assumptions don’t hold.
This recalculates continuously - so you know what is most likely to happen.
We already have a business case - why do we need this?
What happens if the data is wrong?
The model exposes it quickly. If it’s wrong, the outputs won’t make sense - and it gets corrected early.
Is this only for large programmes?
No. It works at any level - from a single initiative to a full portfolio.
