Weekly Operations Brief

Statemind Advisory · Monday 5 May 2025 · Generated by PulseOps

Week 19, 2025

Executive Summary

This was a strong commercial week for Statemind, with three proposals submitted totalling $680K and the Thornfield Capital deal advancing to contract stage. However, two operational risks require immediate attention. Hartley Capital's $61,400 invoice is now 47 days overdue and requires partner-level escalation. Separately, Tom Nguyen's 112% allocation creates delivery risk on the Clearview Partners engagement. Margin on Clearview has also dipped below the 38% floor. Team utilisation at 78.4% is 3.6 points below target — partially attributable to the Nguyen overallocation compressing effective capacity elsewhere.

Critical Signals — Action Required

Hartley Capital AR — 47 days overdue

Owner: James WhitfieldSource: Xero + HubSpot

Watch List — Monitor Closely

Tom Nguyen at 112% allocation — Clearview Partners risk

Tom is committed to 9.2 days of billable work across three clients this week against an 8.2-day capacity. Phase 2 kickoff for Clearview Partners is scheduled Friday. Recommend: move kickoff to Wednesday and redistribute 1 day to Anika Brennan.

Owner: Priya NairSource: Google Sheets

Luminary Health proposal — 6 days without response

Proposal for $280,000 sent 6 days ago. No response recorded in HubSpot. Historical win rate at this stage: 62%. Recommend: follow-up call before Thursday.

Owner: James WhitfieldSource: HubSpot

Clearview Partners margin at risk

Current blended margin on ClearView engagement is 34.1% against a 38% floor, driven by overrun in discovery phase (actual: 48h, estimated: 32h). Recommend: scope change conversation before next invoice.
