Consulting and process optimisation

Consulting and process optimisation

We are brought in when a process has become expensive, slow or impossible to explain, and the people who built it have run out of room to fix it.

What the work looks like

Most engagements start with a process that works but should not. A monthly return assembled by hand. A reconciliation that takes three weeks. A control that exists in principle and in nobody's calendar. We map what actually happens, not what the procedure document says, and we do that with the people who do the work.

From there the choice is usually simple: correct the process, automate the assembly, or replace the system underneath it. We tell you which, and what each one costs, before anything is built.

How an engagement runs

Diagnostic, two to four weeks

Process walkthroughs, data lineage, and a written map of every input, owner and control. You keep the map whether or not you continue with us.

Scope and price

Fixed deliverables against dates, in rand. If the honest answer is that the work is not worth doing, that is in the report as well.

Build and hand over

Tested against your last four cycles, documented, and run by your team with us on call.

Where we are strongest

Regulatory and management reporting, data architecture and governance, financial crime and AML processes, reconciliations, and the operational reporting that sits between finance, risk and IT.

The number is right or it isn’t. Everything else in a reporting process is arrangement.
