Reports and reconciliations that assemble themselves

Exports, reconciliations and the owner summary on a schedule and always put together the same way. Month end stops being two days of copying numbers by hand.

What you get
  • →The reportarrives on time
  • →The numbersput together the same way
  • →Discrepanciesare visible, not discovered later
The exact scope and timing are fixed after the diagnostic — before that nobody has an honest picture.
Outcome

What stays with you afterwards

The report arrives by itself, on time

Regular exports and the summary are assembled on a schedule rather than on a reminder.

The same method every time

The figure is calculated the same way each time, so you can argue about conclusions rather than about the method.

Discrepancies show up at once

Reconciliation runs regularly, so a mismatch surfaces in the same period, not a quarter later.

Who it fits

When people come to us with this

Four situations where a report costs more than it looks.

Month end means two days of copying

Export, combine, check, send on. The same hands, every month.

The systems disagree

One number in the CRM, another in the accounts, a third in the spreadsheet. The argument becomes about who copied what wrongly.

The summary has to be asked for

The owner writes "send me the report", and the gathering starts. By the time it arrives the figure is yesterday’s.

Reconciliation happens "when there is time"

Balances, payments, acts. The discrepancy shows up a quarter later, when sorting it out is most expensive.

How the work goes

A clear order, no surprises

1 · A conversation

Half an hour about your work: what repeats every day, who does it and how much time it eats. No access to your systems is needed at this step.

2 · A map, and one task chosen

We show where the hours go and pick one task: the one that eats the most time and depends the least on particular people. The map stays with you either way.

3 · We take it into service

We build the piece inside your own systems, switch it on and stay around: we watch what it actually does and tell you what changed and why.

The figure is named in a quote for your task, once it is clear how many steps the work has, where they live and what has already been done before us. There is no price list here on purpose: every business has its own set of steps, and an "average price" means averaged work.

Straight talk

What we do ourselves and what we do with partners

We do this ourselves

Regular summaries about our own work — how much was done, in what time, what got stuck — are assembled by machine on a schedule, and the numbers on this site come from there.

Under every number in our own papers there is a source and a period. We keep that rule for ourselves and carry it into the reports we build for a client.

We build this out for you

Pulling data out of your accounting system depends on what it exposes. We look at that first in the review and say, before the work starts, what will come out mechanically and what stays manual.

Where a partner does the work, we stay your single point of contact: we pick the contractor, set the task, watch the timing and answer to you for the result. The contract names the contractor honestly — no "we do everything in-house".

Questions

What people usually ask

Is this a dashboard?
Not necessarily. What is usually needed is not a picture but a finished table that arrives on time and is built the same way. Starting with pictures is expensive and rarely useful.
What if the data sits in different places?
It almost always does. The first step is a map: where each number comes from and where they diverge. Some of the findings are usually fixed with no technology at all.
How much time will this free up?
Before the review we do not know, and we will not invent a figure. In the review we count in hours and at your rates, not in percentages from a slide.
Enquiry

Let us look at your task

Half an hour about how your work is done — no access to your systems and no commitments.

We call back during working hours. Company details are optional — if you give them, we read the open registries first and come to the conversation prepared.
