Finance support shaped around how the business earns.
The rules matter; so does how the business earns. We learn how work is sold, delivered and collected before designing the monthly process.
Where we can add value
Different models. Different finance pressure points.
These are the models we are built to understand. Fit still depends on your entities, records and scope.

A service-business example
Revenue can grow while delivery margin and cash become weaker.
A growing service firm may sign more work, hire ahead of receipts and allow collections to slow. The P&L can look positive while cash becomes tighter.
01Project marginRevenue less direct delivery cost
02Receivable daysHow long earned revenue remains unpaid
03Payroll coverNear-term cash against fixed commitments
The same monthly process, pointed at a different pressure point.
- Project and services
- Invoiced on milestones or time
- Watch: Receivable days
- Work is delivered long before the cash arrives.
- Subscription and retainer
- Recurring monthly billing
- Watch: Deferred revenue
- Cash arrives before the obligation is discharged.
- Product and inventory
- Sold from stock
- Watch: Inventory cover
- Cash sits in goods until they move.
A sensible fit
The right stage matters more than the industry label.
The fit is best where the numbers drive regular decisions and an agreed process can be followed.
- Monthly numbers affect hiring, pricing or cash decisions
- Records can be shared by agreed dates
- Management wants visible responsibilities and open items
- A defined scope matters more than the lowest quote
- Multiple entities or complex group reporting
- Significant historical clean-up
- International tax or transaction-specific advice
- Urgent regulatory or notice work
- The only requirement is audit or certification
- Records are routinely unavailable
- Unlimited work is expected within one fee
- The requirement is only the cheapest annual filing
