PACE Profits+ Virtual Conference

Most profitability models were built for a different cost environment. Tariffs, rate shifts, and input volatility didn’t break those models. They made the cracks visible.

PACE Profits+ Virtual Conference on September 16–17, 2026, 3C Software, a Platinum Sponsor of PACE, will present a session examining how cost and profitability assumptions erode over time and what practitioners can do about it. The session – The Cost of Assumptions: Profitability Analysis That Holds Up Under Pressure – introduces a three-part framework for evaluating model integrity: traceability, responsiveness, and a shared financial language between finance and operations. It closes with a practical diagnostic attendees can apply immediately to their own models through real-world examples of companies that unlocked significant value through cost and profit transparency.

PACE is a vendor-neutral non-profit community dedicated to better organizational decision-making through profitability analytics. Early registration is $49.
