Reviewing your finance function

The finance function needs to be at the heart of every organisation’s business strategy, providing cross-business financial analysis and insight to support corporate decision making.

Our Finance Transformation and Performance team help CFOs and senior finance executives navigate this dynamic environment and transform their financial effectiveness -  making their finance function more effective and aligned to the overarching business strategy.

We advise clients on how to use business intelligence and analytics to access the right information at the right time in order to make more effective business decisions.

We also advise clients on how to use technology and process improvement methodologies to:

  • transform their finance function
  • close their books faster
  • define their finance operating models
  • make finance operations more efficient

Finance transformation

Finance transformation is aimed at creating a finance function that is able to influence business leaders to make better business decisions. It will help to clarify the role of finance in driving strategic business imperatives, and will focus the finance function on delivering the right information to the right business leaders at the right time.

Many finance functions are still struggling to produce real business information that helps business leaders make the right business decisions.

We can help to make the finance function more effective in driving business value and more efficient in the way that it currently operates within the organisation.

Our approach, methodology and team are "field tested”. They have been repeatedly proven by working alongside our clients on their critical finance restructuring and redesign projects. Our finance transformation approach provides a framework for designing, building and sustaining a world class finance organisation.

Enterprise Performance Management

Enterprise Performance Management* provides the chief financial officer (CFO)s with the tools to support informed decision-making across an enterprise, This occurs through the development of a common performance management framework, enabled through appropriate technology investment and the design of one cohesive data model.

We believe that in order to make Enterprise Performance Management efficient and effective in a business, companies must focus on four key areas:

  • Planning, Budgeting and Forecasting
  • Performance Reporting - to give the enterprise insight and forward-looking information
  • Dimensional Profitability and Costing capabilities - to provide deep-rooted analytics on the underlying drivers of the value of the business
  • Data and Information Management

Digital Finance Strategy & Vision

CEOs now need a more nimble, effective, technology and data-driven Finance Function to address this disruption in order to be able to convert these challenges into opportunities. 

This is driving the Finance Function to support CEOs in taking on a considerably broader and deeper set of strategic responsibilities than ever before.
