About

Hospitality margins are under more pressure than at any point in recent memory, and often that pressure sits inside labor, benefits, and payroll structures that haven't been reexamined in years. 40 West Consulting Group works with hospitality owners and operators to bring discipline to that side of the business: identifying areas where expenses are misaligned, building the tracking and controls to keep them in check, and applying proven strategies to bring costs back in line, often at no additional out-of-pocket expense to the business. This is not about cutting corners. Our approach protects product quality and strengthens employee retention while reducing the overhead behind it. Our work spans tax-advantaged employee benefits design, health insurance strategy for salaried, hourly and seasonal workforces, and scaled payroll and bookkeeping systems built to grow with the business. We operate as an extension of your leadership team, not a vendor. For Scott, compliance is not a checkbox, it is a mindset, and he brings that same clarity to every business he advises.
