Deployed where it had to work the first time.
Three deployments led by the founding team, told the way we'd tell them in a boardroom: the situation, what was actually done, and what it produced. Client names withheld; figures real; full detail available under NDA.
TMT · Divestiture
A $9B divestiture where Day-1 finance could not blink
The situation
A global technology group divesting a $9B business unit faced a hard Day-1: statutory, management, and treasury reporting had to run from hour one in the new perimeter, with no tolerance for interruption — the deal terms, the regulators, and the auditors all assumed continuity.
What we did
We designed and delivered the Day-1 finance operating model: the separated ledger architecture, the cutover sequence and controls, automated reconciliation of the migrated balances, and a command structure that treated the close as an engineered system rather than an act of collective heroism. Every cutover control was tested before it was needed.
The outcome
0
interruptions to the business at Day-1
Hour 1
statutory, management & treasury reporting live
$9B
perimeter separated and operating
Clean
first post-separation audit
Global · Finance automation
Reconciliation and AP, touchless across 37 countries
The situation
A global enterprise closed its books on the effort of hundreds: manual reconciliations in spreadsheets, invoice processing keyed by hand, and a close calendar that consumed the team every month — with error rates and audit findings to match.
What we did
We re-engineered the processes around automation rather than bolting automation onto the processes: enterprise-grade matching for reconciliations with a designed exception model, end-to-end invoice automation from capture through posting with in-line controls and fraud screening, and an operating model where people own exceptions and controls — not keystrokes.
The outcome
90%+
reconciliations touchless across 37 countries
75%
lower cost per invoice
Days
removed from the close cycle
Full
audit trail produced as a by-product
FSI · Carve-out
A $2.1B asset-management carve-out, operating independently
The situation
A $2.1B asset-management business had to be carved out of its parent across 24 countries — the full finance stack separated, regulatory obligations intact in every jurisdiction, and the new entity standing on its own from the start.
What we did
We led the finance separation end to end: target operating model for the standalone function, system and data separation across the 24-country footprint, the regulatory reporting map per jurisdiction, and the transition governance that kept both parent and NewCo closing on time throughout.
The outcome
24
countries separated in one program
$2.1B
business operating independently
0
missed regulatory deadlines through transition
On time
every close, both entities, throughout
