# Closing Foundry > Closing Foundry is an operator-led B2B revenue execution consultancy in the United Kingdom. We help founder-led and scaling B2B software teams close the revenue gap between target, forecast and actuals by installing Closing OS, our commercial operating system that runs across three phases: Design, Enable and Run. Most revenue misses are created upstream (in ICP, qualification, stage evidence, deal control and operating rhythm) and seen too late. We diagnose where the system underneath how a team sells is failing, build the fix into how the team sells, and run the rhythm with them in live deals until the forecast is one the board can trust.
