BACKGROUND
Our client is the world’s largest privately owned health club group.
With 540 clubs worldwide and over one million members in 21 countries.
the challenge
The organisation was managing numerous supplier contracts with limited visibility into how well these covered operational risks. This lack of insight resulted in inconsistent standards and made it difficult to balance cost control with quality across multiple sites.
SOLUTION
Anvil diagnosed and rationalised discrepancies across the existing estate. An incentive-based gain-share model was introduced through supplier negotiations to align performance with contractual targets. Pilot site programmes were implemented, monitored, and expanded once successful. A robust framework for ongoing benchmarking was developed to ensure sustained improvements and consistent facility standards across all clubs, now and in the future.
“Visibility and insights lit up the opportunity assessment side of things, greatly boosting the value that we could deliver to the company and its stakeholders.”
