Why should I take this course?

Build stronger commercial judgement, protect your margins and make more confident decisions on the work you choose to pursue.
Winning a contract does not always mean winning a profitable one. In the OGSE sector, unclear costs, aggressive pricing, scope changes and unexpected project risks can quickly erode margins. This programme helps you build the commercial awareness to understand what a job really costs, price with greater confidence and make better decisions before committing resources.

Develop a practical understanding of costing, pricing, profitability and commercial risk without needing advanced finance knowledge. Through realistic OGSE scenarios and hands-on exercises, you will learn to spot margin leakage, assess opportunities and ask the right commercial questions before a decision is made.

Recognise common sources of margin leakage.
Distinguish direct, indirect, fixed and variable costs.
