Finance Consulting
Financial consulting from measurement to management
Just as an organisations’ strategy must continually adapt to cope with changes in the business environment, so must the support functions within the organisation adapt to best deliver the resources and information that management require to define and meet this moving target.
Foremost amongst these support functions is Finance, as it is here that the majority of management information is produced that fundamental business decisions are based on, and it is also through the Finance function that cash, the lifeblood of an enterprise, flows in and out of an organisation.
We can help a Finance function to transform from a “supporting” to a “business leading” function of an organisation, reducing its cost base whilst improving efficiency and the quality of information and subsequent decision making.
Our broad skill set bring together expertise in finance processes and management as well as aspects of supply chain, process improvement, outsourcing, supporting IS & ERP systems implementation and the core finance function.
Financial research and insight
We have dedicated teams that focus on the Public Sector and Financial Services Sector, these include
- Central government - We deliver benefits within key central government departments, concentrating on delivering ‘value for money’ from services through targeting economy, efficiency and effectiveness of processes. We look at business transformation, strategic partnerships, performance reviews and indicators, intervention support and PPP and PFI projects.
- Local and regional government – We tailor our Public Sector finance propositions specifically to meet the requirements of local authorities and regional organisations.
- Finance for Financial Services - We specialise in providing Finance, Risk and Regulatory solutions for the Financial Services Sector. We have worked with a number of prominent financial service institutions to design and realign their strategic operating models to better suit current business environments. In addition, through streamlining their governance, measurement, reporting, processes and controls we have helped them cope with ever increasing regulatory pressures and improve quality and efficiency.
We also have deep expertise and a proven history of innovative and successful projects across the industries of Technology, Media & Telecommunications; Consumer Business; Tourism, Hospitality & Leisure; Energy, Infrastructure & Utilities; Aviation and Transport Services; Life & Health Sciences; Manufacturing and Professional Services.
We have developed two key areas of support across the finance transformation cycle, which include
- Financial performance management - We help businesses to perform at their optimal position by assessing their Integrated Performance Management reporting, often using a balanced scorecard approach, strategic planning, strategic cost management or business modelling to identify any "pain point" within business operations, whilst managing overall risk.
- Shared Services - We can reconfigure the Finance function to add value to the business as well as making the transaction process element of the function more effective. This is achieved by either implementation of a shared service centre or strategic outsourcing of back office processes such as purchase-to-pay, order to cash, closing & consolidation, and tax & treasury processes.
We also provide deep skills and experience in Outsource Advisory Services to help clients consider overall aspects of outsourcing key business process and functions. As the largest management consulting firm that does not offer outsourcing services, independence is assured and sound advice on offer to all our clients.
