Welcome to ERA Canada!

How much is 2% of your annual revenue?

What if you could add that number to your ongoing annual profits without a single new sale? What would that mean to your business?

We help people find out what such additional profit can mean. ERA Canada is a boutique cost reduction consultancy: we identify and reduce wasteful indirect and overhead expenditure.

There are frustrated Presidents, CEOs, CFOs and COOs out there. They know that, like 90% of businesses out there, they’re spending too much on the operation of their companies — their indirect costs and overheads — but they can neither quantify nor eliminate the waste.

We typically hear that:

“There are just not enough hours in the day for me to attend to all my indirect costs.”
“I have to give priority to high-profile tasks.”
“We lack the expertise in-house to cover all indirect cost categories.”
“We haven’t sufficient resources to tackle a cost reduction project.”
“We don’t have enough leverage with suppliers to get the best prices.”

Manage costs and eliminate waste

These are all valid frustrations. Almost no business, regardless of size, can be expected to maintain cost reduction expertise in-house to cover every indirect cost category; to achieve best value from every dollar spent. But there’s no need to be frustrated. Some of the world’s most efficient companies — the likes of IKEA, Adidas, UPS and Roche Diagnostics — have worked with ERA to find savings.

So, you have a choice: accept the status quo, understanding that an unknown amount of wasteful indirect spend is eroding your hard-earned profits; or, call for help, identify waste, achieve sustainable cost reductions, gain spend visibility through regular reports, and manage your costs more effectively.
