Like individuals, companies face crises during their life cycle; if these are not diagnosed early and properly addressed, they can threaten the business itself. Restructuring restores operational performance, relieves financial burdens and improves the business through: cutting costs; reducing overheads and improving employee efficiency; restructuring or refinancing debt; selling idle assets; outsourcing selected processes; re-engineering business processes to raise productivity; and improving management efficiency.

A business plan built on sound, up-to-date foundations helps a company stay competitive throughout its life. It is a decision-making tool for internal and external audiences, bringing together each department's knowledge and development strategy, the company's historical data, and management's vision of its objectives and how to achieve them. Understanding the market, setting sales targets and estimating revenues and costs are the basis of sound decisions.

A feasibility study evaluates a project's potential for development, success and profitability. It covers: the business's historical data; a description of the products or services; a description of the project or new entity and its founders and managers; market analysis; a SWOT analysis of the project in its intended business environment; the time and resources needed for execution; and financial data, budgets, sales forecasts and KPI analysis.

Annual budgets are essential for business control and discipline. A budget is the company's plan for a given period, expressed in figures. Usually prepared for the coming fiscal year, it is a fundamental tool for senior management to plan activity, anticipate risks, secure financing and assign responsibilities. It gives every department head not only their targets and challenges, but also how their work links to other departments. The budget serves to: show the feasibility of the company's operations for the period; assign targets and accountability to departments; plan resources; control costs; predict the effect of expected events; and motivate managers to achieve their targets.

Clear written policies set the guiding principles for how an organization conducts its business, while procedures define how these policies are applied day to day: who does what, which steps to follow and which documents to use. We prepare, document and index policies and procedures for all departments, including Finance & Accounting, HR & Training, Sales & Distribution, Marketing, Production, Operations and IT, supported by a proper archiving and change-control system.

Sales forecasting: In every commercial company, the sales department is among the most important, as it generates the main revenue. A sales forecast estimates the achievable revenue for a given period, based on the company's historical data, market analysis, product positioning and the sales team's own assessment.

Costing: Accurate data and sound costing are the key to good decisions. Understanding the close link between pricing and costing, especially in highly competitive markets, enables managers to: identify and discontinue unprofitable products; adjust the prices of products in demand; and replace inefficient production with more effective alternatives.

Managers need their sales teams motivated, on track and delivering results. Our training programs help sales people understand prospects, build relationships, negotiate, close deals and retain customers. They turn managers into leaders, with proven tools and methods to maximize sales force effectiveness and create an environment for success. We believe that Management by Objectives is the most effective approach to sustainable business development.
