Proof, not promises

The challenge

A large manufacturing business needed to present a complex $1B+ financing case in a way lenders and funding stakeholders could understand. The financial story had to connect project cash needs, production economics, working capital, and long-term returns.

What we did

Built a fully integrated three-statement financial model with waterfall cash flow, manufacturing statements, work-in-progress (WIP) schedules, process costing, debt and funding assumptions, and scenario analysis. The model translated operational activity into a clear, auditable financing narrative.

The outcome

The client used a clear, decision-ready model to support its financing process and secure the required funding. Leadership and stakeholders gained one reliable view of cash requirements, production costs, and financial returns.

The challenge

The business was experiencing cash flow pressure without a reliable view of when cash would be received, when major payments were due, or which actions would stabilize the position.

What we did

Built a detailed cash flow forecast that connected expected collections, operating expenses, payroll, and key payment commitments. Added timing assumptions and scenarios so management could see the impact of different cash decisions before making them.

The outcome

Management gained a clear forward view of cash and a practical action plan to address the immediate shortfall. The forecast replaced reactive decisions with weekly visibility into cash needs and priorities.

The challenge

Five years of financial and operational data lived across multiple disconnected sources. Reporting on core KPIs was slow, manual, and easy to get wrong.

What we did

Built a structured data-reporting system that integrated the multiple sources and complex variables into one clean model, then defined and automated the core KPIs leadership actually relied on.

The outcome

A reliable, repeatable KPI reporting system the team now runs on — replacing error-prone manual consolidation with numbers they can trust.

The challenge

A founder needed a rigorous business plan and financial analysis that could stand up to investor scrutiny — working through complex variables on a real timeline.

What we did

Worked through the complex financial factors, built the analysis to fit their fundraising timeline, and kept iterating as the business and its numbers evolved.

The outcome

A plan the founder trusted enough to keep coming back — a 14-month, repeat engagement rather than a one-off deliverable.

The challenge

The client needed a compensation and profit model built correctly the first time — with the flexibility to refine it until every number reflected how the business actually worked.

What we did

Built the model to spec and offered unlimited revisions, tightening the logic and assumptions until the output matched the client's real-world compensation and profit structure.

The outcome

A model delivered right, with a client happy enough to say they'd hire again — the clearest signal of trust in a project-based relationship.

The challenge

A finance director needed an accurate, well-structured financial analysis report delivered quickly — without sacrificing attention to detail.

What we did

Turned the analysis around fast, kept it accurate and reliable, and paid close attention to the details that matter to a finance professional reviewing the work.

The outcome

A report delivered quickly and accurately, earning a top rating and a very positive experience from a finance director — a demanding reviewer.
