Market & Go-to-Market Strategy
We evaluate existing working-capital and Supply Chain Finance offerings to identify gaps in product design, delivery capability, operating model, technology, sales execution and client experience.
Our assessments are designed to provide a practical view of where capabilities are strong, where they are limiting growth and what should be prioritized next.
Solution & Capability Assessment
Our solution audit is based on a thorough review of your Supply Chain Finance platform in terms of functionality, features and necessary services. We help identify whether you have an MVP (minimum viable product) or a best-in-class solution.
We highlight your strengths and key differentiators as well as where your solution has limitations that could affect you in origination and delivery capabilities. Our solution audit provides you a report with a detailed analysis of your Supply Chain Finance solution and key recommendations.
Platform & Partner Selection
The right technology, funding and strategic partnerships can accelerate growth. The wrong ones can create complexity and constrain execution.
We help institutions evaluate platform providers, funding partners, distribution models and strategic alliances based on business objectives, operating requirements and commercial potential.
Commercialization & Execution
Corporates implementing a Supply Chain Finance program sometimes encounter challenges in terms accounting treatment. Some forms of Supply Chain Finance do present a certain level of risk to reclassify commercial accounts payable into financial debt. Are you concerned or do you have clients refrained from starting a Supply Chain Finance program due to the risk of account treatment?
We help your team navigate through the important aspects of accounting treatment. This includes best practices, recommendations, and communication templates which can be used to approach, or re-approach, the auditors and achieve a favorable opinion to continue with a program.
