Finance and performance

Financial Consolidation

Create one governed consolidation model without losing the detail local finance and operations teams still need.

Consolidation becomes difficult when every business line, entity or region maintains its own structures, files and definitions. The result is recurring reconciliation, inconsistent reporting and low confidence in the numbers used for executive decisions.

We support organizations establish the master-data mappings, reporting hierarchies, governance rules and integrated data flows required for reliable consolidation across decentralized operations.

NoèmeX perspectiveMake the system intelligible first: reveal the structure, constraints and variables that determine where change can produce the intended outcome.

Finance priorities connect performance, control and enterprise execution.

Use these pathways to see how the same finance capability supports executive decisions about performance, operations, technology and value.

The finance decisions that shape the work

We frame the engagement around the process, control and information questions finance leaders need to resolve before selecting a solution.

01

Why are multiple versions of the same financial view still required?

Understand which local reporting needs are legitimate and which versions exist only because the enterprise structure is fragmented.

02

Where are local and group master data misaligned?

Identify mapping gaps that drive manual reconciliation and create inconsistent financial classifications.

03

How much granularity should the consolidated model preserve?

Design hierarchies that support executive summaries while allowing finance and operations teams to drill into the detail they need.

04

How should consolidation logic be governed?

Establish ownership, change control, certification and reporting rules so the consolidated model remains reliable over time.

From finance diagnosis to a governed operating solution

The exact scope depends on the organization, but the work typically produces a combination of these outputs.

01

Consolidation landscape assessment

An inventory of source reports, files, systems, structures, mappings and recurring reconciliation activity.

02

Group and local master-data mapping

A governed mapping between local reference data and corporate structures used for consolidated reporting.

03

Consolidated financial data model

A common model and hierarchy supporting both executive summaries and operational drill-down.

04

Data integration and refresh design

Pipelines and orchestration required to move source data into the consolidation environment reliably.

05

Consolidation governance

Ownership, certification, change-control and exception processes for the financial model.

06

Consolidated reporting application

A governed reporting layer that reduces dependence on parallel spreadsheet versions and manual assembly.

These services often intersect in the same finance transformation program, but each has a distinct purpose and page.

Use the engagement model that fits the finance problem.

Finance work can begin as focused advisory and continue into project delivery, embedded support or an ongoing managed model.

Advisory

Focused executive and specialist support for assessments, design decisions and finance transformation direction.

Project delivery

Structured delivery when the finance design needs to move into implementation, integration, rollout and adoption.

Read more →

Embedded teams

Specialists operating alongside finance and technology teams when continuity and critical-period support matter.

Financial Consolidation

Start with the finance process or decision that is creating friction.

Share the reporting, planning, control or operating challenge, the teams involved and the systems currently in use. Our teams can determine where process, data, governance, analytics or automation work should begin.
