What We Do

Finance process and technology optimisation

To improve the efficiency and effectiveness of finance processes and systems


Are your finance processes and systems inefficient, ineffective or lacking control?

This service is right for your finance function if you want to....

Improve efficiency

  • Your finance processes are inefficient and manual.
  • Your finance teams are bigger and busier than ever before without a noticeable improvement in performance.
  • Robotic Process Automation is an aspirational target but not a current reality.

Improve effectiveness

  • You often find errors or don't have the required information in your management accounts.
  • Forecasts are inaccurate and rarely to plan.
  • Keeping working capital at acceptable levels is a constant battle and you have concerns that revenue leakage is prevalent.

Improve control

  • You are worried about the lack of controls in current processes knowing that you are ultimately responsible if a control failure occurs.
  • There is a high reliance on manual controls.
  • You often see errors in the management accounts that could have been prevented if the correct control was in place.
