The Challenge

The monthly pack takes five days to assemble from exports that are manually reconciled. Cash position is known weekly at best. Budget-versus-actual arrives too late to change anything, and every board question triggers another spreadsheet.

🔧

Our Approach

We automate the consolidation entirely — connecting ERP, banking and operational sources into a governed financial data layer — then build the dashboards around the eight metrics that actually drive finance decisions rather than the eighty that could be tracked.

What You Get

A CFO dashboard opened every morning instead of a pack read once a month. Cash and working capital visible daily. Variance explained at the line level without a single manual export.

Why Finance Analytics
Is Different

Finance is the function most likely to already have a reporting process and least likely to have an automated one. The monthly pack exists, it is accurate, and it costs five days of skilled time to produce. That is the problem: not a missing report, but a process where the most expensive people in the department spend a week each month on data assembly instead of analysis.

The second issue is metric proliferation. A finance function can track hundreds of measures, and dashboards built by committee usually try to. The result is a page nobody opens twice. In practice a small core set determines whether a finance dashboard drives decisions, and identifying that set is a consulting exercise rather than a technical one.

We automate the consolidation first, because that is where the time goes, and design the dashboard around the decisions leadership actually makes. The close gets faster, and what was reporting time becomes analysis time.

A Clear Process.
No Surprises.

Finance Questions
We Get Asked

We run the automated output in parallel against your existing pack until they tie exactly, line by line. Nobody switches off a working process on trust, and we do not ask you to.

Yes, including intercompany elimination and multi-currency translation. Consolidation logic lives in the pipeline rather than a spreadsheet, so it is documented, testable and does not depend on one person.

In our experience around eight measures determine whether a finance dashboard gets used. We work through metric selection with you as part of the engagement, with exact calculation logic and agreed ownership for each.

Both, along with Dynamics, NetSuite and custom ERPs. ERP integration is one of our core services, and finance engagements almost always depend on it.
