Case Studies
Financial support
Assisted multiple companies with their finance functions while a full-time COF hire was made. Engage with the finance team to assess the status quo – identifying any potential issues and then working with the leadership team and existing finance function to resolve these issues accordingly. Engagements typically last anywhere from 3-6 months and afford companies the opportunity to keep the finance function running smoothly until a full-time hire comes on board (then, transition the responsibilities in a seamless manner).
Assessment of finance organization
Engage in an advisory capacity to assess various risks and opportunities within a given business. Operate as an advisor to the leadership team, and a practitioner coach to the finance leaders. Engagements can vary in terms of depth and length depending on the company’s needs. This is typically a good option for companies that want to ensure that their business is well-positioned and resilient for possible market disruptions, or is a good option for companies that want to sustainably grow their business.
Crisis management
Immediate support for companies that are navigating a liquidity and/or credit crisis. This engagement model involves an assessment of the current status of the given issue(s), specific action plan to resolve the issue, and tactical and strategic options to ensure similar issues don’t happen again.
