We enjoy working with
Growing businesses.
As a business grows there are likely to be one or more basic accounting staff, but the business and the numbers are starting to get more complicated. Who is thinking about the bigger picture of how the financials should be structured and presented to better understand the business, how it is performing, where it is going and helping senior management make effective decisions?
Recruiting a senior finance member, or Director, will be expensive and maybe the size of the business does not justify that level of expense and commitment to a full-time role. FDPack is the service which fills that gap and provides the expertise and tools you need for a fraction of the cost of an in-house solution.
Lean businesses.
We work with businesses that might prefer to concentrate on their core competence and outsource their support services wherever possible, or it might be a virtual organisation working without a traditional office base that wants to minimise the number of accounting/finance staff. Whatever the reason, FDPack offers a service that can allow a lean business to operate without an in-house accounting and financial administration resource.
Businesses preparing for sale (short or long-term).
Plans for an exit or succession might be in the short or long-term but, critical to the value of the business and the ease of a sale, will be the company’s financial credibility and the confidence that the prospective acquirers have in the integrity of the financials.
Working with FDPack and using the web app to prepare and present meaningful actual and forecast financial statements demonstrates that the business is in full control of its finances with a solid understanding of where it is today and where it is going tomorrow.
Stakeholders and service providers.
We are introduced to SMEs by a variety of third parties who recognise how the expertise and tools offered by FDPack can be the ideal solution for the challenges of a business at a particular stage of its development.
Investors
A new investor or existing shareholder might recognise the potential of a business but also see that the clarity and reliability of its financials needs to be reviewed and improved either before or after a purchase.
Business Advisers
Advisers to a business such as accountants, acquisition consultants or business coaches recognise that the FDPack service can be complementary to the service they are providing and of great value to their clients.
Accounting System providers
Most accounting systems can present financial statements and do basic forecasting, but it is only a small part of their overall functionality. FDPack offers the specialised expertise and tools that bolt on to a wide range of accounting packages such as Xero, Sage and QuickBooks to provide a complete accounting and financial reporting solution.
