Reporting case study

Management Reporting Upgrade

Board packs and KPI hierarchy

Board pack redesign for a national services group.

A growing services group needed board packs that matched how partners actually ran the business.

Sector: Professional servicesDuration: 9 weeksService: Reporting & MI

Problem

KPIs changed monthly; utilisation definitions differed by practice; cash was an appendix rather than a headline metric.

Approach

We defined a KPI hierarchy, standardised pack layout, and linked GL extracts to a single dashboard source with reconciliation notes.

Outcome

Board meeting time on definitions dropped; partners received practice views with group roll-ups. Cash and WIP visibility improved ahead of a banking review.

Outcome

Management gained clearer visibility for board and banking discussions, with models and reporting rhythms the internal team could maintain after handover.
