Framework

What caused the cost overrun and how severe is it?

Supply chain and material cost impact

Commodity price inflation: 12pp cost impact, no contract escalation clauses

Supplier lead time extension: added 8 months of working capital, $18M impact

Engineering rework and technical challenges

Design validation failures: 2 major systems required redesign (4pp cost)

Labor ramp-up: overhead +32% due to schedule compression and rework staffing

What recovery options exist within customer constraints?

Executable cost reductions without quality impact

Supply chain consolidation: reduce vendor count 47→28, leverage bulk pricing, recoverable $12M (15% of overrun)

Manufacturing optimization: shift 35% of production to lower-cost facility, labor arbitrage $8M

Schedule trade-offs and customer/program impact

Parallel track engineering: accelerate by 6 months, cost increase $6M, total net benefit $14M

Contract milestone delay: negotiate 90-day delivery slip, reallocates working capital pressure

What is the optimal recovery path given constraints?

Hybrid recovery: supply chain ($12M) + manufacturing ops ($8M) + parallel engineering ($6M cost, net benefit $14M)

Residual gap: $27M still unrecovered; requires customer concession or scope reduction
