the first instance, we prepare a diagnosis in order to identify your key
success factors, i.e. essential action required to attain your objectives. The
purpose is to find out the significant criteria, which will appear in your
management reports. For these criteria there are the related management tools.
We will recommend simple and reliable ones, fully adapted to your expectations.
They are based on your information system and conform to your corporate
culture.
After the general framework is defined, we
will recommend an
action plan in order to draw up and implement your management-reporting
format:
- Design of management indicators, which form the basis of the
management tools, and establishment of the methodology in order to obtain and
report them.
- Checking that the selected indicators are appropriate
through simulations,
- Selecting and implementing the required data
processing tools.
We will assist your company in user training as well
as those in charge of preparing the information. We will then define the
control procedures to be implemented in order to ensure that your management
tools are reliable and current.

In the
last stage of the planning process, the budget is the short-term representation
of forecasts and guidelines defined in strategic (long-term) and operating
plans (medium-term). Its initial function is to quantify and allocate the
necessary resources to the development of your business.
Our forecasting system goes beyond this and, thanks to a dynamic budget function, becomes an
efficient instrument to involve and mobilize your team and give them
responsibility.
Our Approach:
The
conceptual phase of the budget plan is the basis of its success. Which goals
have to be taken into consideration in the planning process? Which budget
assumptions should be retained? How to rely on the company's organization? To
which level of detail should budget supervision be carried out? What are the
operating conditions (i.e. persons in charge, time-schedules, tools…)?
We formalize the budget procedure on the basis of the answers of both
general management and operational and financial managers.
The success of
its implementation requires that everybody understand the goals. This is why
we define the communication methodology, which will allow clear
understanding at each level of the organization. In this way, everyone, and
whatever is their function in the company can support the project and be an active
participant. Another success factor: task sharing between decision-makers and
"information producers". Our method is to recommend a rational, concrete and
active organization: a work plan for everyone's assignment, systematic
formalization of work performed and problems encountered, running meetings
concerning progress, validation and arbitration...
The phase of budget
supervision starts after budget approval (analysis of "budget/actual"
variances). Our methodology includes a review of the planning process in
order to evaluate the degree of user satisfaction and identify areas for
improvement.
Our Added Value: complete control over
financial simulations together with strength of know-how in organization and
communication guarantee the rapid implementation of a pertinent and reliable
planning system which will gain everyone's support.
