How We Can Help
Zero-based Budgeting: Make sure that every dollar you spend serves your strategy. Zero-based budgeting creates an ownership mindset that reduces costs by 20 to 40 percent and keeps costs out
Accelerated Transformation: Whether you need to hit earnings targets, rapidly fund growth, out- invest competitors, or simply survive the challenge is the same: quickly reduce costs without damaging your future prospects. Our experts advised that industry-proven transformation turns that challenge into an opportunity: we not only help you quickly reach your financial goals but make the essential organizational changes that put you on a path to sustainable growth
Working Capital Management: Achieving a step-change in net working capital (NWC) performance can be challenging. Companies tend to devote far more focus to operating profit. Financial reporting at the P&L level doesn’t measure working capital optimization. Gaining full visibility into cash performance and availability can be a struggle. And improving NWC performance requires cross- functional cooperation and alignment with mid-level managers, which is difficult to achieve, particularly when their incentives are misaligned with effective working capital management. We’ve helped companies in many industries overcome those obstacles and reduce the cash conversion cycle markedly—and sustainably
Technology Cost Management: The costs of digitalization are pushing technology budgets up, both in absolute dollars and as a share of operating expenses. We & all help corporates adopt cost management practices that eliminate waste and propel their strategy
