Management accounts and reporting
Monthly management accounts, margin analysis and job level reporting that tell you what the business actually earned, not just what it invoiced.
- Monthly management accounts
- Margin and job costing analysis
- Budget versus actual reporting
- KPI packs for owners
Cashflow and working capital
Rolling cashflow forecasting, debtor and creditor discipline, and the working capital planning that keeps growth from starving the bank balance.
- 13 week rolling cashflow
- Debtor and payment discipline
- Working capital planning
- Funding and facility preparation
Financial controls and process design
Approval limits, purchase controls, reconciliation routines and a clean month end that removes the guesswork and the risk.
- Approval and authority limits
- Purchase and expense controls
- Month end close routine
- Audit and accountant readiness
Board and owner reporting
Clear reporting for boards, investors, lenders and owners, written so non finance readers can act on it.
- Board and investor packs
- Lender and funder reporting
- Commercial governance framework
- Decision ready commentary
Systems built to produce the numbers
The difference here: we build the systems that generate the data, so reporting is a by-product of how the business operates rather than a monthly rebuild in a spreadsheet.
- Job, quote and invoice data capture
- Admin dashboards feeding the numbers
- Stripe and payment reconciliation
- Automated internal reporting
Who delivers it
