of your Close & Consolidation process

We help you to achieve a speedy financial close and consolidation process whilst also delivering accurate and compliant reporting.

The Financial Close and Consolidation process is fundamental to all group finance teams, encompassing and providing a platform for the other core financial processes. Whilst there are limits around what can be achieved in closing an ERP system, the consolidation process is often formulaic and repetitive and lends itself to automation with the right technology. For many there is still a reliance upon spreadsheet solutions that can struggle with consolidation complexity, process control, auditability and regulatory compliance (such as SOX).

How can we help you?

We work with companies of all sizes and industries to develop and implement a compliant, robust, time efficient and effective Financial Close & Consolidation process. Our consultants are a mix of highly experienced finance professionals and systems experts, therefore we understand the fine balance between speed of close and accuracy of monthly management reporting and the regulation and compliance around annual statutory reporting. We understand the intricacies of financial consolidation and the need for audibility from ERP through to final reported numbers. More importantly we know how to combine people, process and technology to deliver a best-in-class Financial Close and Consolidation system and process.

We are proud to implement and support market-leading consolidation products such as CCH Tagetik and IBM Cognos Controller.
