Strategy, Finance and Performance
We connect strategy to execution with indicators leadership can actually read and act on.
Financial decisions made on late information, budgets disconnected from the operation and no clear strategic indicators.
We help leadership turn strategy into numbers, numbers into indicators and indicators into decisions. We work alongside the finance team to structure budget control, planning, cash flow and executive reporting.
Signs that it's time to act
- Monthly reports arrive two or three weeks after the close
- The budget lives in an isolated spreadsheet and is never compared to actuals
- Leadership has no fast visibility of margin by business line
- Cash flow is managed day to day with no three or six month projection
Our approach
- 01Review of the value chain and the critical indicators for each area
