The gap between them is unlogged hours, and unlogged hours stay invisible precisely because nobody wants to log them. The model takes your fee, your team mix, your rate card and your actual hours, then returns realised rate against contracted rate per account. The number that changes conversations is the delta: a client billed at a blended 145 who is actually served at 96 is not a profitable account, whatever the fee says. Most portfolios carry one or two of these, and they are usually the accounts everyone is proudest of.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pl-code\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eIt ships working code, not just prompts\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003ccode\u003emargin_model.py\u003c\/code\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCalculates realised hourly rate against contracted rate per account from actual hours and team mix, ranks accounts by margin rather than by fee, and quantifies the over-servicing gap in both hours and money.
