We focus on transparency across commercial structures, financial flows, and decision rights.

Our work makes visible how spend is allocated, how agencies and vendors are remunerated, and where contractual commitments are—or are not—being met. Clients receive clear, auditable outputs such as benchmarking analyses, contract interpretations, governance frameworks, and documented assumptions.

We are fully independent, with no financial ties to agencies, auditors, or technology vendors. This ensures our advice is objective, defensible, and aligned solely to the client’s interests.

Our compliance approach is contract-led and risk-focused.

We assess compliance against contractual terms, remuneration models, governance requirements, and relevant ESG and DEI commitments. This includes reviewing agency compensation, value bank mechanisms, audit rights, data usage provisions, and sustainability obligations.

Where gaps or risks are identified, we support remediation by strengthening contracts, governance structures, and operational controls to prevent recurrence—not just document issues after the fact.

Results are defined upfront and aligned to procurement and finance KPIs.

Depending on the engagement, this may include verified savings, cost avoidance, improved commercial terms, reduced financial or compliance risk, or increased governance effectiveness. We document outcomes in a way that supports internal reporting, audit scrutiny, and executive decision-making.

Progress is reviewed regularly, with clear evidence trails that allow results to be validated over time.

RAUS Global provides marketing procurement advisory and commercial governance services.

Our work typically includes agency and supplier evaluations, contract and remuneration reviews, benchmarking, compliance and governance frameworks, and support for commercial renegotiations or structural change. We also assist clients through complex transitions, including agency consolidations and operating model redesign.

All engagements are tailored to the client’s structure, maturity, and risk profile.

Our approach is designed to scale across markets, categories, and levels of maturity.

We use modular frameworks that can be applied locally, regionally, or globally, enabling consistent governance while allowing for market-specific requirements. As organizational needs evolve—new suppliers, new markets, or new commercial models—we adapt scope and support accordingly.

A core objective is capability transfer: leaving clients with stronger internal governance, clearer accountability, and tools they can continue to use independently.

Yes. RAUS Global is fully independent.

We have no financial, commercial, or referral relationships with agencies, media owners, audit firms, or technology vendors. We do not receive commissions, rebates, or incentive payments of any kind.

This independence ensures our advice is objective, commercially grounded, and aligned solely to our clients’ interests.

Our services are typically structured as fixed-fee, clearly scoped engagements.

Fees are based on the nature, complexity, and scale of the work—not on media spend, savings percentages, or contingent recovery models. This allows procurement teams to budget with confidence and avoids misaligned incentives.

Where appropriate, we also offer phased engagements or pilots to support internal approval processes.

Engagements are tailored, but most follow a clear and predictable structure.

This typically includes an initial scoping and alignment phase, followed by analysis and assessment, documented findings and recommendations, and—where required—support through decision-making, negotiation, or implementation.

Throughout the engagement, we work closely with procurement and key stakeholders to ensure outputs are practical, defensible, and aligned with internal governance requirements.

We take a fact-based and professional approach when working alongside incumbent agencies.

Our role is not to undermine agency relationships, but to ensure commercial terms, governance, and delivery align with contractual and operational expectations. We engage agencies transparently, relying on documented agreements, benchmarks, and data rather than opinion.

This approach helps maintain constructive relationships while ensuring accountability.

Our findings are designed to be evidence-based and defensible.

Where questions or challenges arise, we support clients by clarifying assumptions, validating data sources, and documenting interpretations of contractual terms. We can also assist in preparing materials or participating in discussions to help resolve issues in a structured and professional manner.

Ultimately, decisions remain with the client, but we ensure they are made with clarity and confidence.
