What can the CFO assessment and roadmap show?

Our objective, CFO-level assessment identifies the most significant opportunities to enhance your profitability and hidden risks you might not be aware of.  We then create a roadmap that outlines and ranks each opportunity and the necessary steps to implement each recommended initiative – furthering your mission by ensuring a focused approach to enhancing your company’s financial performance.

Common findings/opportunities include:

  • Working capital inefficiencies that cost your business tangible profit dollars.
  • Working capital structural deficiencies that could cost your business future revenue.
  • Tax savings opportunities (payroll, federal, one-time, and ongoing credits).
  • Margin enhancement opportunities on direct non-payroll costs-capitalize on the most efficient methods to pay operating expenses.
  • Financial reporting inaccuracy red flags. 
  • A need for better financial reporting details to make more informed strategic decisions.
  • Lack of readiness for a business transaction (capital raise, business exit, etc.)
  • Operating practices that negatively impair the business valuation.
  • Ways to future-proof your business.
