Relevant insights help make the right decisions. In a constantly changing world, businesses must adapt and tackle challenges. What’s going well, and which issues need further exploration and research?
Every business has some form of management information available. Often, it’s a collection of Excel documents that have developed over time. There’s an abundance of data, but not necessarily an abundance of information.
In practice, we see that the demand for relevant insights is always evolving. Additionally, some issues require in-depth investigation to uncover the causes of deviations and address disappointing performance.
We are eager to meet data-driven professionals. We enjoy discussing how we can help entrepreneurs by focusing on the right questions, providing relevant insights, and, when necessary, conducting deeper analyses on business challenges.
We work well with financial professionals. With our background in audit and the broader accounting field, we understand the financial side. We actively collaborate in setting up relevant financial dashboards that focus on financial performance, transparency of risks, and the identification of exceptions.
We also collaborate closely with business controllers, where the focus shifts more toward business performance. Where are deviations occurring? How do you interpret trends? Where are the opportunities to turn data into relevant business insights? In a more business-oriented dashboard, ESG/CRSD is now included, but there’s also increasing demand for operational performance insights.
Our collaboration with auditors is in our DNA as data-driven auditors and analysts in the broader assurance domain. Over the past few years, we’ve supported numerous accounting firms with concrete Audit Analytics support. While we are never in the lead of an audit, we assist the team with a set of data-driven audit steps, including data scripting, analysis, and visualizing findings for the audit file.
More and more regulators (supervisory boards, boards of trustees) want concrete insights into the organizations they oversee. Periodic PowerPoint presentations are useful, but by 2025, there will be opportunities for supervisory teams to access actual KPIs, trends, and underlying facts themselves. We are eager to collaborate with businesses and organizations to create a relevant overview for supervisors. This often involves a set of broader, smarter metrics that address various important topics.
