In today’s manufacturing environment, volatile labor costs, fluctuating energy prices, and margin-grabbing supplier tactics make complex indirect services a constant threat to profitability. From facilities management and security to waste, uniforms, pest control, energy, and utilities, these categories often hide “unknown unknowns” that erode savings long after contracts are signed.

Join this exclusive webinar featuring executives from Fine Tune to learn proven strategies for controlling high-stakes expenses and safeguarding your bottom line.

Drawing on 20+ years of Fine Tune’s category expertise, proprietary eMOAT® auditing technology, and vigilant ongoing management, you’ll see how leading manufacturers stop cost creep, enforce compliance, and align indirect services with corporate goals.

Walk away with actionable tactics, real-world examples, and a clear plan to protect your P&L—no matter how complex your indirect portfolio.
