Overview
When finance plans in isolation, the budget is out of date within a quarter. We link the financial plan to the same drivers the business runs on, such as volumes, prices, headcount and lead times, and automate the consolidation.
Financial Business Planning (FBP) turns the operating plan into money: revenue, cost, margin, working capital and cash. Done well, the budget stops being a once-a-year document and becomes a forecast that updates as the business moves.
Who it is for
- Finance teams that spend months building a budget nobody opens
- Companies updating forecasts by emailing spreadsheets between departments
- Owners who discover cash shortfalls instead of predicting them
- Businesses that need a monthly board pack without a week of manual work
