Financial and commercial planning
Financial and commercial consultancy, with forecasts built from the contracts and people behind the numbers.
Where it applies
We provide financial and commercial consultancy on its own or alongside the software. It suits any UK organisation that needs numbers it can trust and explain, from a founder raising investment to a group reporting in several countries. Talk to us if you need to:
- Build a business plan or financial model investors can follow
- Move budgets and forecasts out of disconnected spreadsheets
- Price implementation, licensing and support so each covers its cost and protects your margin
- Control contingency on large projects
- Link costs to the headcount and capacity behind them
- Report across companies, currencies and calendars
What it covers
Business plans and models
- Build business plans and three-statement financial models with us
- Compare scenarios side by side, such as expected, best and worst case
Budgets and forecasts
- Set annual budgets and rolling forecasts, such as 3+9 and 6+6
- Build forecasts from contract terms, such as salaries, rent reviews and supplier agreements
- Track actuals against budget and forecast, with the variance shown line by line
Deal pricing
- Price enterprise software deals, covering one-off implementation, licensing and support
- Price implementation against the effort, people and risk involved
- Set licence models such as per user, per site or enterprise-wide, with discounts and margin set out
- Price support models against the service levels and response times promised
- Link pricing to what the contract commits you to deliver
Commercial control
- Track project profitability from bid to close, against the price agreed
- Hold contingency against risk, with every drawdown approved and recorded
- Track service credits and penalties against the service levels agreed
- Link project costs to headcount and capacity plans, so margin reflects the people on the work
Structure and reporting
- Set up your chart of accounts and cost centres around how you run the business
- Report on several calendars at once, such as financial year, tax year and custom periods
- Report across more than one company, currency and country
Live reporting
