Initial Business Assessment

Solving for Success

We are eager to conduct a comprehensive analysis of your organization or focus on specific areas as needed. Our goal is to assess and rate tasks based on complexity and potential return. Together, we prioritize these tasks and work towards delivering the highest return for your business.

Business Intelligence and Reporting

Next Level Analytics

“One Version of the Truth” is essential for organizational success. Often, different areas have their own definitions of success. We collaborate with businesses to establish clear metrics and assign ownership. Engaging the business in this process is crucial. Once a unified truth is established, the focus shifts from debating numbers to driving business outcomes. We then create the required reporting and measurements and establish daily and weekly cadence to ensure the business is moving in the right direction.

Financial Analysis and Pricing Excellence

Foundational Pillar of Success

The goal here is to understand revenue and profitability not only at a macro level but at a customer and transaction level. This knowledge has to then be transferred to sales, and operations and guard rails have to be set up to ensure the right outcome is achieved. This is an area that we believe is underutilized in organizations or does not go deep enough so cause and effect is understood across the organization


We have seen in many organizations how margin is eroded on the belief that additional volume will make up for the lost margin dollars. We have also seen many organizations thinking that more revenue means more profit and not realizing the true cost of operating that business. We help build the pricing models and activity-based costing models so that they can be deployed to optimize profitability.


We are also well versed in financial planning and analysis and can help put together the plan along with the leading indicators to drive performance. All this then leads to our next critical success factor.

Business Strategy

A Clear Vision of Success

We cannot emphasize this enough. It is critical to have a clear strategy on what the company is trying to accomplish. It does not mean that there are 10 goals with various sub goals. It means that there are no more than 2-3 large goals with owners in front of them along with 2-3 sub goals under each of those goals to deliver the performance the organization is looking to achieve.


We help develop a customer strategy blueprint that is then operationalized so that it can be executed at the appropriate levels in the organization.

Wooden Chess Pieces
All Hands In

Execution

Operationalize the strategy

A strategy can only take you so far. We ensure that we work closely with the teams that will execute and operationalize the strategy to drive the right behavior in the organization.


We then constantly monitor, and measure and course correct as needed to drive the desired outcomes.

We are with you every step of the way and are relentless in our focus to drive improvements in the business. We are happy to create the capabilities, provide a blueprint of success and then let the business take it from there if that is what the client wants or we can continue to stay engaged as much or as little as the client wants.


This ability helps make our model extremely flexible and cost effective. We are excited to join you on your journey to optimize profitability across the organization! Please reach out for any additional information and how we can help.

What our Customers are Saying

I’ve been fortunate to have worked with Gaurav for over a year now. He has been amazing to work with and possesses a unique blend of skills including data, analytics, PowerBI, finance, and business. He was able to build PowerBI reports/dashboards that answer real-life business and finance questions without us having to explain the business and finance concepts to him.

Gaurav was able to quickly understand the specifics of our business, our data, and what we were trying to accomplish. He was always careful to ensure he understood the data we wanted to see and the use case before beginning work which meant we didn’t need many iterations for a report to be useful. Gaurav does a great job of providing suggestions leveraging his finance background at all stages of development. He has a deep understanding of PowerBI and the correct way to implement it to avoid performance and consistency issues.


I would highly recommend Gaurav to organizations that are just starting their PowerBI journey or are looking to take it to the next level.
