Where effort and results don’t match.

A short, senior-led, operator-side review that identifies immediate revenue, yield, and efficiency opportunities across slots, tables, floor utilization, and marketing reinvestment—without disrupting operations.

The problem this solves

Most casinos today have experienced teams, established processes, and continuous investment in assets and marketing—yet many still face a persistent reality:
versus

Effort vs. results

Performance does not fully reflect effort and spend.

Legacy floor decisions

Layouts and floor choices are influenced by habit, legacy, or vendor cycles.

euro

Reinvestment uncertainty

Marketing and loyalty spend is difficult to tie to measurable incremental value.

Reporting-to-action gap

KPIs exist, but decision-making does not consistently translate data into action.

The Casino Performance Gap Review is designed to identify exactly where performance is being left on the table—and what can realistically be improved in the near term.

What makes this different

This is not a generic “optimization project” or a long audit that ends up as a report on a shelf.

Senior-led & practical

Operator-side, commercially grounded guidance.

Short & clearly scoped

No open-ended engagement.

Actionable by design

Prioritized recommendations for implementation.

Non-disruptive

Supports management; does not replace it.

Our methodology: the 4-Alignment Model

The review is built on one core principle:

Performance gaps are typically caused by misalignment—not lack of effort.

We evaluate your operation through four alignment lenses:

1) Asset Alignment

Are your slots, tables, layout, and product mix earning what they should?

Typical focus:
• slot mix, denomination/volatility alignment, zone productivity
• table mix, minimum strategy, operating hours vs yield
• floor utilization, visibility, and traffic flow

2) Demand Alignment

Do operational choices match real player demand—by time, segment, and product?

Typical focus:
• peak/off-peak demand patterns
• under/over-supply of games or minimums
• product availability vs actual player behavior

3) Reinvestment Alignment

Is marketing and loyalty reinvestment producing measurable return?

Typical focus:
• segmentation and offer structure
• tier benefits vs actual player response
• reinvestment efficiency and “silent overspend”

4) Decision Alignment

Are KPIs and reporting translating into better commercial decisions?

Typical focus:
• KPI relevance (what is measured vs what matters)
• reporting-to-action gap
• decisions driven by habit vs evidence

The 90-Day Rule

A defining discipline of this service:

If an improvement cannot realistically be implemented within 90 days, it does not belong in the Casino Performance Gap Review.

This keeps outcomes practical, prioritized, and executable.

What we review (typical modules)

Your review can be modular. Most engagements cover:

Slot Performance

Productivity by unit/zone/game family, underperforming zones, mix opportunities.

Table Performance

Productivity by game/minimum, operating hours & staffing vs yield.

Floor Utilization & Layout

High-value vs low-value space, traffic flow, sequenced improvement plan.

Marketing & Loyalty Effectiveness

Segmentation, offer architecture, reinvestment efficiency, silent overspend.

KPI & Decision Framework

Measure what matters, decision cadence, turning reporting into action.

No. This is a performance and alignment review. The focus is commercial outcomes and practical improvements, not compliance.
No. The review is designed to work with existing management and teams, with limited operational interruption.
We align required data early. Typical sources include slot and table performance reporting, marketing/loyalty activity, and KPI packs currently used by management.
Then this is even more useful. The review often identifies decision and alignment gaps between insights and implementation, and helps prioritize actions.
