Board pack: Northgate Facilities Ltd

From the X-ray of 18 September 2026. One page. The company is invented.

Five things

Revenue is up 3.9% a month. Net profit has halved. At 2.2%, one bad month or one lost contract puts the business at break-even. The plan's target is 8%. (F01, computed)
Prices have not moved since January 2025. Wages have moved twice. Every month without a review costs about £8,000 of margin on cleaning. (F03, computed)
£1.5m of contracts reach their notice date on 30 September, before the board meets. If either customer can give notice by 30 September, the board will learn about it after the fact. The July minutes expect Calder's renewal 'in the new year', which is after its notice date. (F05, inferred)
Complaints nearly doubled after the Manchester supervisor left. The saving on one salary is set against the two contracts with notice dates on 30 September, both mostly serviced from Manchester. (F06, computed)
The same action has been carried forward at three meetings. The board is recording decisions it is not closing. A half-hour task has been open for eight months. (F11, read)

Before 30 September, an extra half-hour: the Calder and Irwell notice dates (F05), and the Manchester supervisor (F06).
15 October, item 1: open actions, their age and owner. Close the bank portal action (F11).
15 October, item 2: the cleaning price review, with a proposed rise per contract (F02, F03).
15 October, item 3: complaints by customer, as a standing item (F07).
15 October, item 4: the planned maintenance hire, or a revised 2028 target (F08).
15 October, item 5: a one-page AI use rule (F14).
