What Clients Have Said

AF
Ahmad Faizal
Director, Manufacturing · Kuala Lumpur
"We brought teguhad in for a cost structure review when we felt our margins weren't reflecting how hard we were working. Within the two weeks, they produced a cost map that was more granular than anything our finance team had put together. The benchmark comparison was genuinely eye-opening — we had two overhead categories that were significantly out of line with sector norms."

"The CX strategy engagement changed how I think about our front-of-house processes. Before we started, I knew we had inconsistencies in how different staff handled customer queries, but I couldn't pinpoint where things went wrong. The journey map they produced made the gaps visible in a way that was easy to act on. The recommended interaction scripts were a bit formal for our brand tone, but the underlying logic was sound."

"We engaged teguhad for M&A advisory on a mid-sized acquisition in the logistics space. Their structured approach across the ten weeks kept things moving without unnecessary urgency. The due diligence coordination was handled professionally, and the deal assessment document they produced became the central reference for our board discussions. Lim Wei Chong was thorough and direct throughout — that kind of candour is not always easy to find."

Owner, F&B Group · Shah Alam
"Running three outlets, I had a rough sense that the cost structures were different across each location, but no clear picture. The engagement was brief and focused exactly where I needed it. They delivered a clean cost summary with direct commentary — not wrapped in caveats. The review session with my operations manager was useful. I'd recommend this for any F&B owner who's too close to the day-to-day to see the full financial picture."

Kevin Wong
CEO, Technology Company · Penang
"We were evaluating an acquisition target in the SaaS space and needed an advisory team that understood both the financial and operational considerations. teguhad brought structure to a process that had been meandering for months. The preliminary valuation work was solid, and the negotiation preparation brief they gave us ahead of the final discussions was well-targeted. We closed the transaction at terms we were satisfied with."

Rashidah Mahmud
Director, Education Provider · KL
"We brought teguhad in to review how our students experienced the journey from enrolment through to programme completion. Priya's team identified three points in the process where students were consistently disengaging, and the redesign recommendations for those touchpoints were specific enough to implement directly. Four months later, our mid-programme dropout rate has come down meaningfully. That's the kind of outcome that matters."

Client Stories

Three engagements in detail — what the client was dealing with, what we worked on together, and what changed.

Case Study 01
Multi-Branch F&B Operator
Cost Structure Analysis
Challenge

Three outlets generating different margins with no clear explanation of why. The owner had no baseline to compare costs against industry norms.

What We Did

Mapped cost categories across all three outlets side-by-side. Compared overhead distribution against sector data for F&B businesses in Selangor and KL. Identified two cost categories that diverged significantly.

Outcome

The client adjusted vendor arrangements for one cost category and renegotiated a service contract on another. Owner now reviews costs quarterly using the map format we established.

"The map was more useful than three months of internal discussions. We finally had one document everyone could reference."

Case Study 02
Private Education Provider
Customer Experience Strategy
Challenge

A mid-programme dropout rate higher than expected, despite positive enrolment feedback. The institution wasn't sure where students were disengaging or why.

What We Did

Mapped the full student journey from initial inquiry through graduation. Conducted structured interviews with recent students and staff. Identified three friction points driving early departure.

Outcome

Touchpoint redesign recommendations were implemented over 8 weeks. Mid-programme dropout rate reduced. Client's academic team adopted the journey map format for ongoing review.

"The recommendations were specific enough to use directly. That made all the difference."
— Rashidah Mahmud · March 2026
Case Study 03
Technology Company, Penang
M&A Advisory
Challenge

A fast-growing SaaS business identified a smaller acquisition target but lacked the internal expertise to conduct structured due diligence or frame the transaction appropriately.

What We Did

Ran the full 10-week advisory: target assessment, preliminary valuation, due diligence coordination, deal structuring support, and negotiation preparation. Weekly briefings to the CEO throughout.

Outcome

Transaction completed at terms the client's board found satisfactory. Integration planning roadmap used post-close. CEO credited the negotiation brief as a key factor in the final outcome.

"We closed the transaction at terms we were satisfied with. The negotiation brief was exactly what we needed."
