It is profit. Contract Controllable Income. CCI is at the contract level and rolled up to the Account and Client Group. CCI minus Corporate Overheads equals Operating Income (OI)..You can look up on yahoo finance what Accenture operating income is, also called net income. At the project level you can control your costs but not things like the investment the firm makes in innovation centers and acquisitions so they are corporate overheads. Yours are thinks like exceeding travel budget, not being able to staff to the levels in the staffing plan so having to staff more expensive resources, project delays that are not billed to the client, etc. these reduce the profit of the project. The anticipated profit at the time of booking the deal is called ODE. Original Deal Economics. The project is measured against this over time. If more profitable the company writes this up as positive and if less it writes it down. Project managers and CALs are measured against performance to ODE. Hope this helps.
CCI is the estimated profitability of your particular project. It accounts for the revenue generated (billing for your time and expense) and nets against the cost to provide the service (cost of your time and expense). There may be other factors involved as well, but they’re less material.
Stands for Contact Controllable Income
How does staffing more people on a project affect CCI? Is it because we increase the number of hours billed to the project?
CCI is just a fancy way of saying profit margins. Every project has a target %. Adding another resource increases your expenses and lowers your profits. Thus reducing your CCI. Example being you have a 100k deal with 50% CCI target, you'd profit 50k. Increase your expenses by 20k to add another resource, your profits drop to 30k and a CCI of 30%.
CCI - Contract controllable income is the estimated income of a project less the projects costs (loaded cost for resources used in the project, travel and more).
Generally staffing more junior resources improve CCI (analysts generally have very good CCI contributions because ratio of billing rate to pay is very high), staffing Managing Directors or Senior Managing Directors absolutely slaughter a CCI because they have very high loaded costs.
(One of many reasons why most Senior MD's are only staffed part time to projects)
This is generally the key metric that project leads are measured by because this is how we make our money.
