Financial Planning & Analysis

Process

Step 1
Data Collection, Consolidation, and Verification
The foundation of effective FP&A is accurate and reliable data. We gather and consolidate financial, operational, and external market data from various sources (such as your ERP system) into a single, unified source of truth. We then meticulously verify this data to ensure its integrity and reliability for robust analysis.
Step 2
Planning and Forecasting
Using the verified data, our team develops detailed financial forecasts to predict future business performance. We employ various advanced methods, including driver-based planning and predictive analytics, to create dynamic rolling forecasts that are more relevant and adaptable than static annual plans. This includes comprehensive scenario modeling to test the impact of different variables on your business outcomes.
Step 3
Budgeting and Resource Allocation
Based on the strategic plan and financial forecasts, we work collaboratively with your departments to create a detailed master budget. This budget serves as a clear financial roadmap, allocating funds to various initiatives and functions to achieve your corporate goals. We also support modern approaches like zero-based budgeting to enhance cost control and accountability.
Step 4
Performance Monitoring, Reporting, and Analytics
FP&A is an ongoing, iterative cycle. We continuously monitor your company's actual performance against the budget and forecast, conducting detailed variance analysis to understand deviations and their root causes. We deliver regular, insightful reports, executive dashboards with key performance indicators (KPIs), and ad-hoc analyses to provide actionable insights and support a culture of continuous improvement.
