Strategic Modelling & Analysis

Scenarios, models and board-ready workpapers

Driver-based forecasts and decision memos — auditable, scenario-ready, and maintainable by your team.

Strategic modelling turns commercial assumptions into structured scenarios — driver-based, auditable, and suitable for boards, banks, and transaction counterparties.

Model design

We build models that separate inputs, calculations, and outputs; minimise hard-coding; and document assumptions in plain language.

Complexity is added only when it improves decisions — not to impress reviewers.

Scenario testing

Base, upside, and downside cases are linked to operational drivers — volume, price, wage, and capex — rather than blanket percentage shocks.

Sensitivity tables show which assumptions matter most for cash and covenants.

Using outputs

Memos explain what changed between versions and why — critical when management, boards, and advisers iterate quickly.

Models are delivered with walkthroughs so internal teams can maintain them.

Frequently asked questions

What makes a model board-ready?

Clear separation of inputs, calculations, and outputs; documented assumptions; scenarios linked to operational drivers; and memos explaining changes between versions.

Do you build in Excel?

Yes, unless otherwise agreed — with structures designed for internal maintenance after handover.

Can you fix an existing model?

Often. We assess integrity, remove unnecessary complexity, and rebuild drivers where spreadsheets have become brittle.
