A Deep Dive into P&L Analytics
Measure what matters most: your profitability. This page details the P&L Analytics suite, the core financial feature of our Tariff & Financial Management solution. Use the Detailed Site Report and the Portfolio View to track, diagnose, and improve the profitability of every property in your portfolio.
The Purpose of P&L Analytics in Tenant Billing
P&L (Profit & Loss) Analytics is the primary measure of success for any utility resale operation. It is the core financial management feature of the Augos platform, providing a consolidated, data-driven view that directly compares a property's total bulk utility costs against the total revenue recovered from tenants. Its purpose is to move beyond simple billing and provide a true financial oversight tool that instantly highlights your net profit or loss.
Diagnose Financial Leakage Instantly
The P&L report is the first and fastest way to see if a property is losing money. It immediately highlights any "profit gap," which is the critical first step in diagnosing financial leakage, whether it's from unrecovered common area costs, incorrect tariffs, or supplier overcharges.
Make Data-Driven Asset Management Decisions
By providing a clear financial performance metric for every property, P&L Analytics empowers portfolio managers to make smarter, data-driven decisions. You can accurately rank assets by profitability, prioritize the worst-performing sites for intervention, and allocate capital with confidence.
Localized E-E-A-T Fact
In South Africa, commercial property profit margins are increasingly under pressure from rising utility costs. A 5% reduction in unrecovered utility costs can equate to a significant increase in Net Operating Income (NOI), a key performance indicator for property investors in the South African market.
Your Two Views into Profitability
Our P&L Analytics are delivered through two distinct but connected reports, designed for different levels of management.
The Detailed Site Report
The Granular, Single-Asset View
What it is:
The financial dashboard for a single property. It provides a granular P&L breakdown, comparing the main municipal bulk bill against the sum of all tenant bills and common area costs for that specific site.
Who it's for:
Building Managers and Financial Administrators.
How it works:
This report itemizes all costs and revenues. A building manager can instantly see if a financial loss is due to unrecovered common area costs, a tenant's tariff being set incorrectly, or if the main bulk tariff from the municipality is too high, allowing for precise, corrective action.
The Portfolio View
The High-Level, Multi-Asset View
What it is:
The high-level, multi-site financial dashboard designed for property groups and portfolio managers. It aggregates the key P&L metrics (Total Cost, Total Recovery, Net Profit/Loss) from every property in a portfolio into a single, consolidated summary.
Who it's for:
Portfolio Managers, Asset Managers, and Senior Executives.
How it works:
This dashboard allows senior managers to instantly rank properties by profitability without running individual reports. From this summary, you can click on any property to drill down into its Detailed Site Report for deeper investigation.
