    What we do

    Dashboards and budget comparisons

    Management dashboards put the agreed business measures and explanations in one report for owners and managers. • Track key performance indicators, the measures selected to assess business results. • Show trends and flag results outside agreed limits. • Compare actual results with the budget and prior periods. • Reconcile the plan with updated forecasts. • Investigate variances, the differences between planned and actual results. You receive the agreed dashboard and comparison reports with explanations of the changes reviewed.

    Department, product and customer results

    Segment reports separate business results into the parts that management needs to evaluate. • Prepare department profit and loss reports showing revenue less costs. • Compare product line profitability. • Review results by customer group or geography where agreed. • Track project and job costs. You receive the agreed breakdowns and supporting calculations for each reporting group.

    Cash and business measures

    Cash reports and selected measures help owners review available funds, operating performance and borrowing conditions. • Report cash balances and a 13-week cash forecast on the agreed schedule. • Track working capital, funds tied up in day-to-day operations. • Compare profit margins, revenue growth and customer acquisition measures. • Review inventory turnover, collection and supplier payment periods, and asset use. • Track available cash against short-term debts, loan conditions, debt payments and returns on owners' or invested funds. You receive the agreed cash schedules and measure definitions with supporting calculations.

    What is included

    The reporting package is defined around the records available and the questions your team needs to answer. • Choose the dashboards, budget comparisons and reporting groups. • Agree on cash reports and the measures to track consistently. • Identify reports needed for board or investor updates. • Set record handoffs, review responsibilities and the reporting schedule. You receive a written scope and the agreed management reporting package on the agreed schedule.
