Measuring success,
shaping the future

Targeted management decisions that pursue agile, sustainable and increasing corporate performance are constantly influenced by disruptive events such as transformation of business models, political events, problems in global value and supply chains, as well as increasing regulatory requirements. Long-term success and the development of a company's full performance potential require a flexible and transparent management model, but also an effective and efficient implementation.

Accounting & controlling (FP&A)

An efficient and effective finance function combines optimized record-to-report processes with a high degree of harmonization between internal and external accounting. Current technological innovations offer considerable benefits, both for the structural and process organization of accounting & controlling and for the development of an integrated financial data model. With our expertise in operational accounting & controlling, we design your finance function with the future in mind - optimizing your organization, processes, methods and IT systems!

Group reporting & consolidation

The importance of Group reporting and consolidation lies in providing a clear and complete overview of its financials and performance. This information is crucial for strategic decision-making and external reporting. The challenges in this area are the complexity of data aggregation and harmonization, compliance with different accounting standards and regulatory requirements, as well as ensuring data quality and consistency across all entities. With our expertise we face these challenges together and take a holistic view of requirements between the Group and individual entities.

Integrated business planning

Integrated planning combines strategy, processes and resources to ensure the company's success in an increasingly complex world. This allows measures to be evaluated and initiated at an early stage. We help you to harmonize complexity and coordination, set clear goals and react flexibly to changes. We take your corporate culture into account, whether top-down, bottom-up or middle-out.

Incentive systems

We think outside the box and combine the implementation of a new management model with management incentivization. In our experience, this component is often neglected, which jeopardizes the effectiveness of the management model.
We support you in designing incentive systems in such a way that they harmonize with your performance management approach and generate the greatest possible added value.
