Headline Teaser: High-performing COOs are boosting asset utilization by 10–12% with advanced analytics and predictive maintenance — turning idle capacity into valuation growth.
Idle assets are silent value killers. Bain & Company’s research shows that for every 1% increase in asset utilization, EBITDA margins can rise by 0.5–0.7 points — directly improving enterprise value multiples.
The reality? McKinsey’s Global Operations Survey reveals that over 40% of MedTech and industrial assets sit underutilized due to unplanned downtime, poor scheduling, and outdated capacity planning. With the cost of capital 2–3x higher than pre-2022 (JP Morgan), the ROI bar for every asset has never been higher.
The high-performance COO playbook:
- Predictive Maintenance — IoT sensors + AI to prevent failures, improving uptime by 20%.
- Dynamic Scheduling — Adjusting production in real time based on demand signals.
- Cross-Asset Utilization — Redeploying equipment across sites to maximize output.
At NextAccel, we hardwire these productivity gains into our 3D Enterprise Value Engine, aligning capital allocation, operations, and GTM. The result: 10–12% higher utilization without raising cost-to-serve, directly strengthening valuation resilience.
Turn underutilized assets into consistent valuation drivers.
