LENSENTIAL CONSULT

Is it a good business?

Lensential Consult is the strategy system our analysts run for companies and their investors: 21 specialist AI agents, and an orchestrator that runs them in five phases, from framing the question to the decision memo. It asks whether a business, a product line or a plan is worth backing, fixing or building. You bring the decision. We run the study, deliver it and present it.

Release 0.3.23, October 2026. Every example on this page follows one fictional company, Kellmere Instruments, deciding what to do with one product line.

ONE QUESTION, CARRIED TO THE ASK

Every finding is carried to the decision it changes.

11.0%to3.0%Field Meters' contribution margin, FY2023 to FY2026. Price explains $6.2M of the $11.2M fall; volume, unit cost and direct costs explain the rest.
62%of the units, and a $4.8M lossContractors bought 62% of the meters in FY2026 and lost $4.8M after direct costs. Utilities bought 38% and earned $8.6M, plus $6.1M of calibration.
$84Magainst $78M to $89MOption B, utilities by subscription, valued against a sale today. The recommendation keeps the sale open and names the test that decides between them.

WHERE IT FITS

The other half of an investment case.

Venture investors

The market half of a thesis: how big the market is, where the profit sits, and who competes. Lensential Venture checks the company; Lensential Consult sizes the world it sells into.

Private equity

For operating partners and portfolio companies: where the business stands, how it should price, who decides what, and the roadmap and measures that follow.

CFO and product offices

Which product lines to grow, fix, sell or exit, how to price them, and the real options with the business case for each.

Investors and boards

When a portfolio company is off plan, a turnaround study uses Lensential Consult, Lensential Venture and Lensential PE.

THE DELIVERABLES

Five questions, in the order a study travels.

Pick a question. Each opens what the agents deliver, what you send and what you get, and the agents that do the work.

FRAME

DIAGNOSE

DESIGN

PLAN

LAND

What exactly are we deciding, and what is true today?

Problem framing · Situation assessment · Assumption audit

Problem framing turns a concern into one question with a date, an owner and hypotheses that can be proved wrong. The situation assessment splits performance into volume, price and mix, and prices the momentum case: where the business ends up if nothing changes. The assumption audit types every belief a plan rests on.

SPECIMEN

PROBLEM FRAMING · ONE PAGESPECIMEN

Field Meters: grow, fix, sell or exit?

THE QUESTION

How should Kellmere restore Field Meters to a 10% contribution margin by FY2030, or sell it for more than it is worth to us, decided by the board on March 18, 2027, within the FY2027 capital budget?

SCOPE

InField Meters, its two channels, and the calibration contracts on its meters

OutProcess Analyzers, Lab Systems, and a sale of the company

THE ISSUE TREE

Field Meters' value is what it earns, price times volume less cost, and what it is worth to an owner.

1
Price · On-invoice discounts; rebates, freight and payment terms
2
Volume · By segment, utilities and contractors; by channel, direct and distributors
3
Cost · Unit cost; the number of models; direct operating costs
4
Ownership · What the line is worth to us and to a buyer; the calibration that comes with the meter

THE HYPOTHESES TO TEST FIRST

Hypothesis	We would be wrong if
H1. Discounting, not volume, explains most of the fall.	Volume and cost together explain more than half of the fall in contribution.
H2. The contractor channel loses money after its direct costs.	Contractor contribution is positive at FY2026 pocket prices.
H3. The meter brings in the calibration contract.	Fewer than 25% of calibration contracts are on a Kellmere meter.

Every hypothesis states the evidence that would prove it wrong. All three held: price explains $6.2M of the $11.2M fall, contractors lost $4.8M, and 41% of calibration contracts are on a Kellmere meter.

Where is the money, and who competes for it?

Market map · Competitive landscape · Customer segmentation · Profit pool analysis · Organizational forensics

The market is sized two ways and reconciled into a range, every source dated. Rivals are profiled from public evidence, and their next moves are read from their real constraints. Customers are segmented on the economics the decision needs. The profit pool shows where the profit sits along the chain, which is rarely where the revenue sits. Organizational forensics runs when the subject is a group of related organizations, and establishes who is legally who from the records before any strategy rests on it.

PROFIT POOL ANALYSIS · US HANDHELD METERS FOR ELECTRICAL WORKSPECIMEN

Meters are 54% of the revenue and 38% of the profit

Step	Revenue	Margin	Profit pool	Confidence
Meters	$2.9B	7%	$203M	HIGH
Distribution, through electrical wholesalers	$0.9B	5%	$45M	MEDIUM
Calibration and certification	$1.2B	18%	$216M	MEDIUM
Fleet software and data	$0.35B	22%	$77M	LOW

Calibration is 22% of the chain's revenue and 40% of its profit.

KELLMERE IN THE POOLS

Meters4.4% of the revenue, 1.9% of the profit ($3.8M of $203M)

Calibration on its own meters2.1% of the revenue, 2.8% of the profit ($6.1M of $216M)

WHERE THE POOLS ARE MOVING

Meter margins fall as rivals cut list prices. Calibration grows with the documented-calibration rules in utilities' safety programs. The software figure rests on one listed peer; five calls with utility fleet managers will firm it up.

The move: grow calibration at utilities, the richest pool Kellmere already serves, and stop buying meter share with contractors.

Margins from listed proxy companies' segment reports. LOW marks the one step with a single proxy.

What are the real options, and what is each worth?

Strategic options · Pricing recommendation · Business case · Portfolio review

Strategic options develops three to five options that differ in kind, against a do-nothing option that is always priced. The pricing recommendation works from the pocket price, after every discount. The business case computes NPV, payback and IRR in three scenarios from a model your finance team can rerun. The portfolio review gives every unit exactly one verb: grow, hold, fix or exit.

The breakeven loss is the share of unit volume a segment can lose before contribution falls. Both segments can take 5%; at 8%, contractors may not.

ESTIMATEExpected losses from win-loss records, FY2024 to FY2026

REALIZATION RULES

An on-invoice discount above 15% needs the regional sales director, above 22% the CFO, and none goes above 28%.
Freight is absorbed only on orders above $5,000.
Rollback trigger, until the contractor run-down starts: contractor units more than 17% below the prior year for two months in a row. The pricing committee then reviews the rules within ten days.

Strategic options, page by page is further down this page.

What do we fund, in what order, and what could go wrong?

Operating model · Initiative prioritization · Transformation roadmap · Risk register · War-game

The operating model sets who owns what and who decides. Initiative prioritization cuts the list to the capacity you really have and writes the stop list. The roadmap turns the choice into waves, with milestones you can verify. The risk register gives every risk an owner and a funded mitigation, and the war-game plays out how rivals and customers respond.

KPI architecture · Stakeholder alignment plan · Storyline and deck · Decision memo

KPI architecture gives every number one owner, one source and a guardrail against distorting the number. The alignment plan maps who must say yes, and in what order. The storyline turns the work into slides whose titles tell the story on their own. The decision memo puts the ask in its first line. A study that needs a decision ends by asking for one.

SPECIMEN

DECISION MEMO · FIELD METERS · INTERNALSPECIMEN

To the board, for the strategy session of March 18, 2027. From the CFO and the Chief Product Officer.

1
DECISION REQUESTED
Approve up to $20.0M for Option B in two steps: $1.6M now for a utility subscription pilot in two regions, and the remaining $18.4M only if at least 10 of the 40 pilot utilities sign the subscription by September 30, 2027.
2
RECOMMENDATION
Sell Field Meters to utilities as an annual subscription that includes calibration, and run down the contractor channel from the fourth quarter of 2027. Option B is worth about what a sale would bring today, and unlike a sale it can still become one if the pilot fails.
3
WHY NOW
Contribution margin fell from 11.0% to 3.0% in three years, and on its current course the line loses money from FY2028. Contractors bought 62% of the meters and lost $4.8M; utilities earned $8.6M and carry $6.1M a year of calibration. A buyer's price falls as the margin does.

THE OPTIONS

Option	NPV	Why not
0 Momentum	$10M	Loses money from FY2028.
A Fix in place	$66M	$18M less than B, and its margin falls back to 3% by FY2031.
B Utilities, as a subscription (recommended)	$84M
C Sell the line	$78M to $89M	Cannot be undone; B can still become C.

A fifth option, harvesting the line for cash ($12M), is in the options paper.

5
ECONOMICS
Against the momentum case, Option B adds $24M of value from FY2027 to FY2031, before any terminal value, with an IRR of 65% and payback in 3.1 years. In the conservative case it adds $7M, with an IRR of 25% and payback in 4.0 years, and Option B is then worth $49M, below any likely sale price.
6
RISKS AND THE KILL CONDITION
The uncomfortable one: by FY2030 the meter plant runs at about half of today's meter volume, and the overhead Field Meters absorbs today moves to the other lines. The other two: distributor termination costs, where more than $3.0M slows the run-down, and unit cost at half the volume, where more than 10% above its trend re-scopes it. Kill condition: fewer than 10 of the 40 pilot utilities sign the subscription by September 30, 2027. Then we sell, likely about $5M below today's price estimate.

HOW WE DELIVER

Finished files, signed by a principal and presented by the analyst who ran them.

Signed by a principal.

Every deliverable is read, challenged and signed by a principal before it reaches you. Delivery times include that review. A paper you take to your own board goes out under your name.

Formats follow the reader.

Papers come as PDF. Models, scores and registers come as live Excel, so your finance team can rerun them. The storyline comes as PowerPoint and the decision memo as Word, because your team edits both before they go out.

The route is confirmed first.

You see which agents will run, which are skipped and why, before the heavy work starts.

A gate after every phase.

You see what was learned and how the working answer changed, and you can stop there.

One folder per engagement.

It holds the deliverables, the working notes, the files each deliverable is built from, and the engagement file, so any deliverable can be rebuilt and reissued.

Presented to your leadership.

An analyst walks your executive team or your board through the findings, on a call or in the room.

Start with what you have.

A question and last year's numbers are enough to frame a study. Product-line P&Ls are enough for a portfolio review.

How you pay.

A fixed fee per study, or a retainer for an agreed number of studies where the work repeats. Fees are agreed before work begins and do not depend on what we find.

ONE STANDARD

Six rules every agent follows.

These rules let a recommendation hold up for a reader who backed the rejected option.

1
Answer first.
A working answer exists from the first phase, with its confidence stated, and every phase improves it.
2
Facts carry sources. Estimates carry labels.
A belief everyone repeats and nobody has checked is tested or flagged, never used as a fact.
3
The do-nothing option is always priced.
Option 0 is the momentum case on its real trajectory, never weakened on purpose.
4
Every recommendation names its kill condition.
The number and the date that would reverse it, written before anyone approves it.
5
Every deliverable ends with a written quality bar.
You can check the work yourself, against the bar.
6
An unwelcome answer comes early.
If the answer is unwelcome, we say so at the first phase gate, not on the last page.

FACT

Verified with evidence, and the evidence is cited.

ESTIMATE

Reasoned but not yet verified, with its basis stated.

LEAP OF FAITH

The plan rests on it, and nothing supports it yet. It gets a test and a kill criterion.

Market and industry figures also carry a confidence label, HIGH, MEDIUM or LOW, and every LOW comes with a plan to firm it up.

The labels, in practice.

ASSUMPTION AUDIT · OPTION B · FIELD METERSSPECIMEN

Four beliefs, typed and tested

#	Assumption	Type	If wrong	Likely wrong	Test	Kill criterion
1	Utilities pay for meters as an annual subscription.	LEAP OF FAITH	5	4	A pilot with 40 utilities, $1.6M, by September 30, 2027	Fewer than 10 sign the subscription

4	The six distributors accept a wind-down that runs through FY2030.	ESTIMATESurfaced by the premortem	3	3	Counsel reads the six distributor agreements	Termination costs above $3.0M: slow the run-down

Proceed with tests. The first belief decides the option, and its test costs 8% of the $20.0M it protects.

"If wrong" and "Likely wrong" are scored 1 to 5.

FROM THE QUALITY BARS

An issue tree has no overlaps and no gaps.
At least 20% of an initiative list is stopped or deferred.
At least one unit is classified fix or exit.
Two sizing methods, reconciled when more than 30% apart.
A year-one benefits ramp above 60% needs an explicit defense.

SEVEN ROUTES

Say what you need. The orchestrator proposes the route.

Say "take this from the question to the board", and the orchestrator proposes one of seven standard routes and checks with you after each phase. Each delivery includes the principal's review.

One sharp question	Single question	Straight to the one agent that answers it.	Three business days

Every route except a single question and a reorganization ends in an ask: a decision memo or a storyline.

STRATEGIC OPTIONS, PAGE BY PAGE

Five options for Field Meters

0 · Momentum$10M

Run the current course.

Loses money from FY2028.

A · Fix in place$66M

Tighten discounts and cut the models from 140 to 60; keep both channels.

Must be true: contractors accept a 5% higher pocket price.

B · Utilities, as a subscription$84M

Sell meters with calibration as one annual subscription; run down the contractor channel.

Must be true: utilities pay for meters by subscription.

C · Sell the line$78M to $89M

Sell Field Meters to a strategic buyer at 0.55 to 0.65 times revenue, keeping its calibration contracts for about three years.

One step, and it cannot be undone.

D · Harvest$12M

Stop development and run the line for cash.

Loses money from FY2029.

NPV at 9%, FY2027 to FY2031, plus four times FY2031 contribution, calibration included, as a terminal value, never below zero. Option C has none, because the line is sold.

STRATEGIC OPTIONS · PAGE 4 OF 9 · OPTION BSPECIMEN

Utilities, as a subscription

THE THESIS

Utilities buy a meter and its calibration together, because their safety programs require documented calibration. Sold as one annual subscription, the meter is priced on the value of a compliant fleet, not against contractor discounts.

YEAR ONE

A pilot with 40 utility accounts in two regions, April to September 2027.
Calibration scheduling in the customer portal.
A run-down plan with the six distributors, ready to start in the fourth quarter.

INVESTMENT

$20.0M over two years: $8.0M to leave the contractor channel, $7.0M for subscription billing and calibration scheduling, $5.0M for the utility sales and service team.

ECONOMICS

B, staged, with C kept ready

RECOMMENDED

Option B, in two steps: the pilot now, the full move only after the gate.

RUNNER-UP

Option C, sell the line.

WHY B OVER C

They are worth about the same today. B keeps the sale open; a sale closes every other option.

WHY NOT A

A is worth $18M less, its margin falls back to 3% by FY2031, and its two moves are already in B's first 90 days.

KILL CONDITION

Fewer than 10 of the 40 pilot utilities sign the subscription by September 30, 2027. Then we sell, at a price likely about $5M below today's estimate. That, with the $1.6M pilot, is what the test costs.

FIRST 90 DAYS

The discount approval rules go live in both channels on April 1, 2027.
The model list is cut to 60, with a last-order date for the 80 retired.
40 utilities in two regions join the pilot.
A buyer list is kept current, and no sale process starts.

Pages 1, 4, 7 and 8 of nine. Pages 2, 3, 5 and 6 hold options 0, A, C and D. Page 9 lists the candidates searched and set aside: a web store for contractors, licensing the meter design, and merging Field Meters into Process Analyzers. Kellmere Instruments is a fictional company.

WHAT IT DOES NOT DO

Our limits.

We do not make the decision. A recommendation is our judgment on the evidence, with its kill condition; the decision is yours.
We give no legal, tax, accounting or investment advice. Organizational forensics reads registries and filings; what a structure means in law is for your counsel.
Market and industry figures from public sources are estimates and carry a confidence label. Licensed market data enters a study only when you provide it.
We do not implement the plan. Building the reporting or the tools a study calls for is a separate build, and Build with us does it.
We do not promise an outcome. Every business case shows a conservative scenario, and every recommendation names the condition under which it fails.

THE ORCHESTRATOR

Five phases, in a fixed order. A study may skip any but the last.

The orchestrator proposes one of seven routes and confirms it with you before the heavy work starts. It keeps one engagement file across sessions, holds a working answer from the first phase, and stops at a gate after each phase to confirm the route or change it.
