For portfolios

Solve it once. Run it in every company.

We take over one back-office function at one of your companies and run it to a written standard. That standard becomes your portfolio’s template. Then we roll it out, company by company, each with a named person accountable.

Monthly report1 companies

Invoices paid on terms. One definition, every company.

The problem

Ten companies. Ten ways to pay an invoice.

Every company you own runs the same back office its own way. You pay for each fix more than once, and you can’t compare the results.

  • The same work, solved again

    Each finance team writes its own checklist, picks its own tools and learns the same lessons the hard way.

  • A different supplier in every company

    A bookkeeper here, an outsourcer there, a spreadsheet everywhere. Each with its own contract and its own idea of done.

  • Numbers you can’t put side by side

    The board packs use the same words for different things. You can’t tell which company is doing well, or why.

One measure, three board packs

How it works

Start with one company. Then the next.

The first company pays for the hard part: learning how the work runs and writing it down. Every company after it starts from what the first one learned.

  1. 1

    Start with one company

    Pick one function at one company, say supplier invoices. We map how it really runs, write the standard with the CFO and run it. Paid per completed job. Misses are redone free.

  2. 2

    Make it the template

    Once the record shows it holding, the standard becomes the portfolio template: the rules, the checks, the monthly measures. Each company keeps its own approvals and limits.

  3. 3

    Roll it out, one by one

    We take on the next company on the same template, with a named person accountable for its exceptions. Each one goes live when its own Map is done, not on a set date.

After the first company, each standard starts from the template, so the Standard step is a review, not a rewrite.
What the fund gets

One standard. One supplier. Numbers you can compare.

Your operating team sets the standard once. We do the work, company by company, and report on it the same way everywhere.

  • Reporting you can compare

    Every company reports the same measures, defined the same way, every month. You see who is on standard and who is not, without asking.

  • One supplier

    One engagement across the portfolio, paid per completed job. A named person in each company, and one team you can hold to all of it.

  • Standards the companies own

    Each company signs its own standard and keeps it, with the Map and the record of every job. Nothing is locked inside a vendor.

  • A lever at hold and exit

    A back office that runs to a written standard, with a record behind every job, is easier to improve during the hold and easier to diligence at exit.

Questions

Before you roll it out.

What operating partners ask before the first company starts.

Do the companies need the same tools?

No. We work in the tools each company already runs, from Xero to SAP. The standard is shared. The stack does not have to be.

Who decides at each company?

The company does. Its management signs its own standard and sets its own thresholds. The portfolio template is where it starts, not an order from the fund.

How is it priced?

Start with the core workflows at one company, paid per completed job at a price written into its standard. It grows with volume, with each workflow you add and with each company you bring. Misses are redone free. No seats, no hourly billing, no usage fees.

What happens when you sell a company?

The standard, the Map and the record of every job belong to the company. A buyer gets a back office that is written down and running. We keep running it, or hand it over.

For operating partners

Start with one company. Bring the rest when it works.

Tell us the function and the company to start with. We send back a draft standard within one working day.
