Revenue keeps growing, yet cash keeps getting tighter.
Services
Six disciplines. One measure of success: money you keep.
We work where earnings turn into cash and decisions: pricing, margin, cash, planning, modelling and reporting. Bring us the problem; we bring the method and leave the tools behind.
01Signature practice
Pricing and revenue leakage
Most margin is lost after the price is agreed.
Is the margin you priced in the margin you collect?
Typical formatProfitability and Pricing Review, 3 to 4 weeks
Signs you need this
- Discounts approved by habit rather than policy
- Customer deductions written off without review
- Contract escalations missed or applied late
- Price lists that stood still while costs moved
What we do
- A price waterfall from list price to pocket price, by customer and product
- A leakage audit across discounts, rebates, deductions, unbilled work and missed escalations
- A discount authority matrix and deal-approval guardrails
- Pricing models for new products, renewals and tenders
What your team keeps
A price-realisation dashboard and a monthly leakage report that sales and finance both trust.
02
Cash flow and working capital
Growth eats cash. A forward view keeps it fed.
Why is the bank balance tight when the P&L looks healthy?
Typical formatCash Release Programme, 12 weeks
Signs you need this
- Profitable on paper, short at month-end
- Credit lines drawn for routine payments
- Customers paying slower than you pay suppliers
- Shortfalls discovered days before they land
What we do
- A rolling 13-week cash forecast with weekly variance
- Billing, collections and credit-term routines
- Stock and unbilled work turned back into cash
- Supplier terms aligned with customer terms
What your team keeps
A weekly forecast, a Monday cash review and a Power BI view of DSO, DPO and funding use.
03
Profitability and cost
Blended margin is an average. Decisions need the detail.
Which customers, products and channels truly earn their keep?
Typical formatProfitability and Pricing Review, 3 to 4 weeks
Signs you need this
- Revenue rising while profit stays flat
- No clear view of what each customer costs to serve
- Overheads spread by rule of thumb
- Sales rewarded for volume rather than margin
What we do
- Margin by customer, product, channel and region
- Activity-based cost-to-serve
- Overhead allocation that stands up to scrutiny
- Unit economics and cost per FTE
What your team keeps
A profitability model refreshed every month, showing plainly who earns and who costs.
04
FP&A, budgeting and forecasting
Plan for the year you will actually have.
Would leadership bet a decision on today’s forecast?
Typical formatFP&A Health Check, 2 weeks, then a scoped build
Signs you need this
- A budget set once and outdated by the first quarter
- Forecasts only one person can update
- Variance reviews that explain but never act
- Scenarios requested that the team cannot produce quickly
What we do
- Driver-based budgets and rolling forecasts
- Scenario and sensitivity models
- Monthly performance packs and a review cadence
- Budget ownership mapped to business heads
What your team keeps
A forecast your team refreshes in hours, with a review rhythm leadership actually keeps.
05
Financial modelling
Test the decision on paper before you test it with cash.
What does this choice do to cash, returns and risk?
Typical formatScoped per decision, typically 2 to 6 weeks
Signs you need this
- Expansion or capex judged on top-line logic
- Lenders or investors asking for projections
- Pricing or contract choices with unclear cash effects
- Models that break when one assumption changes
What we do
- Integrated three-statement models
- Capex, expansion and new-market cases
- Lender and investor-ready projections
- Contract, tender and pricing decision models
What your team keeps
A documented model with clean inputs, so your team can stress-test the next decision too.
06
MIS dashboards and finance automation
The fastest close is the one nobody types by hand.
How many days after month-end does leadership see the truth?
Typical formatScoped per reporting suite, typically 3 to 8 weeks
Signs you need this
- A month-end pack that takes more than a week
- The same numbers reconciled in three spreadsheets
- Figures leadership asks for that take days to pull
- KPIs defined differently by each department
What we do
- Executive Power BI dashboards
- Excel and Power Query automation of month-end packs
- One agreed definition for every KPI
- Close and reporting process redesign
What your team keeps
Dashboards that refresh themselves and a month-end pack leadership opens first.
Situations we are called in for
Most clients arrive with a symptom, not a service name. Find the one that sounds familiar and jump to the work behind it.
Margins are slipping and nobody can say exactly why.
We are raising capital or refinancing debt.
The board wants a forecast it can rely on.
Month-end takes too long and still raises questions.
A big decision is on the table: a new plant, market, price or contract.
How engagements are shaped
Scope and fee are fixed in writing before we begin. Most clients start small and widen the work once they have seen the first results.
