Maven was engaged by Acxiom to benchmark their cost structure against various competitors and business in similar industries and to evaluate the efficiency of the current organizational structure. Internal cost benchmarks were developed by comparing similar groups that differed by geography and customers served. Cost benchmarks to external organizations were developed thru interviews, research reports and financial analyses. The efficiency of the organizational structure was evaluated by analyzing the spans and layers throughout the company. The results of the various analyses were synthesized and recommendations for cost reductions and new budgets were developed.
