Revenue model

1. Consulting and Advisory Services: Core revenue stream from providing customized consulting and advisory services to healthcare institutions including hospitals, clinics, laboratories, AMEs, UPAs, medical/odontological offices, and long-term care institutions (ILPIs). Services include waste management, hygiene and cleaning, hospital linen processing, quality auditing, logistics, biosafety, hospitality, and strategic planning. Typically project-based engagements with defined scope and duration.
2. Courses, Training, and Continuing Education: Revenue generated from selling course enrollments, training programs, MBAs, specializations, and workshops. Programs are offered in-person, online synchronous (live), and corporate (in-company) formats. Pricing varies by program — short courses (e.g., R$200 per module, R$1,200 for complete programs), certificate courses, and postgraduate programs. Certificates are issued by TCL Consultoria and partner institutions (e.g., XHL Consultoria, IBRA Saúde, INACI).
3. Hospital Product Sourcing Services: Revenue from operating a hospital product quotation center linked with multiple purchasing platforms and suppliers of medical-hospital products, orthopedic supplies, clothing, laboratory items, hygiene products, furniture, disposables, devices, and equipment for clinics.
