Our Value-Based Investment Philosophy

Praxis Performance & Turnaround Partners, LLC

Partnering with Praxis

Stabilize. Optimize. Outperform.™

At Praxis, we believe a consulting investment should be judged the same way any other capital investment is judged: by the return it produces. This document explains how we approach pricing, how we quantify the value an engagement is expected to create, and what you can expect as we build a proposal together.

Our Philosophy: We Sell Value, Not Hours

Praxis does not price engagements based on consultant hours or generic day rates. We price every engagement based on the measurable financial and operational value it is expected to create for your organization — balanced against what your organization can reasonably invest and approve.

In practice, this means every proposal is built to demonstrate that the value you receive substantially exceeds the investment required. If we cannot make that case credibly, we will tell you — and we will redesign the engagement, the scope, or the timeline until we can.

How We Quantify the Value We Create

Before proposing an investment, we work with your team to estimate the financial opportunity available to your organization across five categories:

Revenue Enhancement

  • Increased patient census and service volume

  • Expanded or optimized service lines

  • Improved payer mix and reimbursement capture

  • Increased clinician productivity

  • Reduced no-show and cancellation rates

  • Telehealth and access optimization

Expense Reduction

  • Reduced reliance on contract and agency labor

  • Reduced overtime

  • Administrative and operational efficiencies

  • Supply chain and vendor savings

  • Revenue cycle and denial-management improvements

Workforce Value Creation

  • Reduced employee turnover and associated recruitment costs

  • Reduced vacancy and agency-staffing costs

  • Improved retention, engagement, and management effectiveness

  • Reduced burnout and absenteeism

Financial Performance

  • Improved cash collections and reduced accounts receivable

  • Improved operating margin, EBITDA, and cash flow

  • Reduced borrowing requirements

Enterprise Risk Reduction

  • Regulatory compliance and survey readiness

  • Leadership stabilization and governance improvements

  • Operational continuity

Some risk-related benefits are harder to express in dollar terms, but we account for them as part of the overall value picture rather than ignoring them.

Our ROI Commitment

Every proposal Praxis presents includes a documented, transparent Return on Investment analysis using a simple formula:

ROI = (Projected Annual Value Created − Annual Investment) ÷ Annual Investment

We target a minimum 5:1 return for every client, with most engagements projecting a 7:1 to 10:1 return. If the analysis does not support at least a 5:1 return, we revise the proposal — we do not lower our standard.

What Your Investment Reflects

Two organizations with identical revenue can receive very different proposals from Praxis, because we account for more than size alone. Your proposed investment reflects:

  • The total financial opportunity we jointly identify for your organization

  • The complexity and scope of the engagement required to capture that value

  • Your organization’s financial capacity, liquidity, and board approval process

  • The resources, expertise, and time required for successful execution

Organizations facing financial pressure are not priced out of working with Praxis. We routinely structure smaller initial assessments, phased implementation, milestone-based billing, and grant-supported work to fit an organization’s current capacity, then scale the partnership as results are realized.

A Typical Engagement Path

Most Praxis partnerships move through four phases, though scope and sequencing are always tailored to your organization:

Phase Purpose

I. Enterprise Diagnostic Understand your organization's current performance and opportunities.

II. Transformation Blueprint Develop a tailored roadmap for improvement.

III. Implementation Partnership Work alongside your team to put the plan into action.

IV. Performance Sustainment Help sustain and build on the results achieved.

Exact investment figures are determined jointly, using the value-quantification process above, once we understand your organization’s specific opportunity and capacity.

Estimating Your Own Opportunity

To help you begin thinking through your own numbers, Praxis provides a companion Enterprise Value & ROI Calculator. The calculator lets you enter preliminary estimates across the value categories above and see an illustrative projected return before we build a formal proposal together. It is a starting point for conversation — not a substitute for the detailed Enterprise Diagnostic that informs every final Praxis proposal.

Our Commitment to Measurable Results

Praxis does not stop at a projection. We track actual performance against every projected return throughout the engagement and beyond, as part of our ongoing Measure discipline. This allows us to continually refine our approach and support our value-based pricing model with a growing body of demonstrated outcomes, consistent with the confidentiality terms of our engagement agreement.
