Our Values & Vision

Our Mission

At OPEXEngine, we know what it is like to make important operating decisions in a dynamic environment. We’ve been there. We’ve prepared annual and quarterly budgets, board reports, strategic plans and acquisition analyses. We’ve had to identify problems, course correct, and manage at times of incredible growth (and market slowdowns) – making decisions based on internal data alone, past experience and gut instinct.

Driven by Data

We founded OPEXEngine to give companies neutral, 3rd party benchmark comparisons to guide decisions and help manage operating risks. Performance and operating benchmarking is all that we do; we don’t collect data to sell other services. Our paid subscription service is confidential and proprietary.

Our Users

We work with experienced CFOs and CEOs of the leading software and SaaS companies, as well as investors, to design our benchmarks and surveys, so they provide easy-to-access actionable information.
