Start with the problem, not the service name

“We need to know if we will run out of cash”

You need a forecast you can trust by Friday, and the one you have does not tie to the bank account. We build the 13-week cash flow forecast, the weekly process that keeps it current, and the P&L and working capital analysis that shows where this year’s cash comes from.

“We need to change direction and the numbers do not tell us where”

You want to understand your options and the model only shows one future. We build scenario and sensitivity models so you can compare the real choices side by side.

“Our finance team spends too long producing reports”

Three days of copying between spreadsheets, then no time left to explain what the numbers mean. We find the slow parts of the cycle and automate them.

“I am an advisory partner who needs turnaround capability”

You have a live project, a short deadline and no managers free. We work under your brand, at day rate, on site in Brisbane, Melbourne or Sydney and then remote.

We build it with your team, then leave you with everything you need

Most finance work arrives as a report or a licence. A report goes stale. A licence means you pay forever for something you cannot change.

We do it a third way. We sit with your team, build the model in front of them, and teach them how it works while it is being built. When the engagement ends, the file, the process and the documentation are yours.

Three steps, and nothing hidden between them:

  1. Co-build. Your people are in the build with us, not waiting for a draft. They see every assumption go in.
  2. Upskill. We teach the method as we go, so the model survives the person who commissioned it.
  3. Hand over. You get the model, the documentation and a walkthrough. No licence, no subscription, no dependency on us.

What this has looked like

Who we work with

We work with two groups.

Medium to large businesses across Australia. Usually $10m+ in revenue, with a finance team who need support or new capability. The person who calls is normally the CFO, Head of Finance, the CEO, or a board member. Something has changed, a lender wants a forecast, or a decision is due and the current numbers will not carry it.

Advisory and professional services firms in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. Partners who need modelling and analysis capacity on a live project at short notice, delivered under their brand. There is a page written for you.

We are based in Brisbane and work on site across Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney.
