We support CEOs, CFOs, controller and treasurers to optimise the structure of their finance functions to improve their contribution to the business. We structure our support to ensure that finance addresses the challenges of achieving appropriate standards of control, efficient back office opportunities and support to the business through insight and challenge.
Accounting
International Accounting Standards (IAS) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) introduce significant changes to the way that accounts must be prepared and presented, requiring a wider range of assets to be valued on an annual basis.
Strategy
We provide deep industry and technical knowledge, supported by rigorous market, economic and financial analysis, to enable you to deliver the best results for your business in the areas of business unit strategy, transaction services, valuation, economics, brand/intellectual property management and risk management. Transact Advisory advises on a range of healthcare solutions and offer impartial proposals whether you are reviewing your existing arrangements or adding healthcare to your employee benefits package.
Operations
The demand for customer centric focus, end to end integrated operations and optimal cost management has never been greater. We bring capabilities in management and process improvement to help companies optimise their operating processes and supply chain. We help our clients transform their key value chain functions, from customer management through to sourcing of services and goods. We apply proven cost management methodologies to facilitate agile responses to changing conditions and to drive business growth. We support our clients to improve value, reduce waste and reduce costs to leave lasting sustainable benefit.
Revenue Growth
The selling process is becoming much more complex. Connectivity has facilitated mass customisation and created new routes to the customer, but it has also raised people's expectations. They now want goods and services that are tailored to their individual preferences, a consistent service and single point of contact.
People & Change
Getting the best from people at every level when there is constant change is the key to sustainable competitive advantage. Solid strategies, processes and technology alone do not deliver results. It takes people to accept, adopt, drive, and sustain the change to realise tangible impact. Success in business hinges on strategic agility and the ability to execute.
Shared Services & Outsourcing
Many companies have already outsourced their IT and back-office functions or established shared services centres for major business processes. They are now outsourcing core activities like research, product development and tax and legal services, as globalisation and connectivity enable new ways of doing business. The rationale for outsourcing is thus changing dramatically; a growing number of organisations see it as a means of obtaining strategic advantages, not just as a cost-cutting measure.
Employee Compensation Plan
ESOPs can be complex, but the process of deciding if they will work for you and your company doesn't have to be. We work collaboratively with you and your advisors to explain:
How an ESOP would work in your company.
How your company will be valued.
How banks decide to provide financing.
What technical issues will be faced.
After a preliminary dialogue and assessment you will have a good idea of whether or not the ESOP is worth exploring in more detail.
Technology
Technology is an important enabler of business transformation. To assist you in getting value from technology investments, we bring together the skills to deliver improvements in processes, as well as the knowledge in IT strategy, IT architecture and design, enterprise applications, sourcing, project management and IT operations management
Business Protection
It is vital that all companies, big or small should consider business succession, loan protection, key-person protection planning and the associated inheritance tax implications. Transact Advisory offers advice to all shareholders, Directors and sole traders on these difficult decisions.
