Financial Planning and Analysis Services
What is FP&A
FP&A is short for Financial Planning & Analysis and is the bridge between business strategy and finance. It includes four key activities that support an organization’s financial health:
- planning and budgeting
- integrated financial planning
- management and performance reporting
- forecasting and modeling
Traditionally, forecasting is a once-a-year report created and used to gauge progress. Rather than what it should be - It’s a living document and a useful tool for growth and planning.
FP&A as an essential strategic asset
- Best-in-class financial reporting
- Financial projections and cash flow management
- Budgeting and variance analysis
- Data analytics and business intelligence
- Risk and financial scenario modeling to aid decision making

Year-round insights
Forecasting done right
Our service provides you with a rolling forecast that is regularly updated each month and allows you to access year-round insights. When done correctly, it’s more of a living document that improves over time. And when used correctly, this type of forecast allows you to:
- Recognize early-on if your predicted figures are off (either positive or negative)
- Clearly see what’s causing the increase/decrease (by tracking the key drivers of success)
- Quickly pivot based on potential scenarios (that can be done on the fly)
