Financial advisory for manufacturers
Every operational choice on the floor shows up twice: once in gross margin, and again in working capital. Most reporting only shows one of them.
Start an advisory reviewThroughput, turns and working capital — connected, not reported separately.
The drivers that decide the outcome.
What owners in manufacturing actually describe.
Margin erosion nobody can locate
Input costs, scrap and mix shift margin quietly. We decompose the change so the fix is specific.
Cash trapped in inventory
Turns and safety stock decide how much cash the balance sheet holds hostage. We quantify what a turn improvement is worth.
Pricing that lags cost
We model the price change required to hold margin, by product, before the next quote goes out.
Cash released per turn improvement.
Margin recovered at the source.
Headroom before the next capital decision.
Margin by product line, scrap and yield trend, inventory position, cash forecast.
Capacity utilization, capital-equipment economics, pricing and vendor-term review.
Proactive tax planning around equipment investment, cost segregation and entity structure.
Questions we hear first.
Do you need a full ERP to work with us?
No. We start with the data you have. Where the data is thin, we tell you which single measurement would change the most decisions.
Can you evaluate a capital-equipment purchase?
Yes — throughput gained, labor displaced, cash consumed and the tax treatment, in one model.
How is this different from cost accounting?
Cost accounting explains what happened. We use it to decide what to price, buy and build next.
