Pareto analysis · IN SHORT
Rank customers, products or tasks by the value you want to examine. The skill calculates the actual distribution, separates top, middle and tail groups and checks hidden costs and incomplete data.
Your brief
Four products generate 50, 30, 15 and 5 pounds in revenue. Which group contributes most?
Possible draft
Two of four products generate 80 of the total 100 pounds. The observed split is 50% of products for 80% of revenue; profit cannot be inferred without costs.
01 / THE FOUNDATION
A ranked list with shares, three contribution groups, proposed actions and gaps in cost or period data.
02 / SEE HOW IT WORKS
Four products generate 50, 30, 15 and 5 pounds in revenue. Which group contributes most?
Two of four products generate 80 of the total 100 pounds. The observed split is 50% of products for 80% of revenue; profit cannot be inferred without costs.
This example shows the approach. It is not a client result or a guarantee of a particular outcome.
03 / GET STARTED
Sum the values and calculate individual and cumulative shares.
Use the distribution in the data instead of forcing an 80/20 result.
Review costs, omitted items and the time period before selecting actions.
04 / MAKE IT YOURS
Take the instructions, add your own context and review the draft. You stay in control.
