Improvement of business process in financial department
The improvement of business processes under the responsibility of the finance function is carried out through an insight into internal documents, by organizing workshops and interviews with employees, as well as by analysing already established processes and related internal control systems.
Crowe consultants can assist you with the reorganization of the entire finance sector which may include:
- Analysis of the existing organizational structure in terms of division of responsibilities between different departments within the sector.
- Analysis of the existing staff organization in the sense of the analysis of the existing systematization of jobs, occupation of jobs, division of responsibilities both in systematization and in practice.
Based on the conducted analyzes and identified deficiencies, our team makes recommendations for improving the organizational structure and arrangement along with drafts of proposed solutions. Our conclusions may also contain proposals for additional education of existing staff, periodic rotations in systematized workplaces, changes in the organizational structure, establishment of new functions and/or workplaces, etc.
Interim management
Interim management provides highly qualified and experienced management resources on a temporary basis. It is designed to fill key positions within your organization, strengthen financial management, and improve reporting processes.
The benefits of interim management include time savings, access to specialized skills and knowledge, independent oversight, flexibility, and the ability to lead projects where in-house expertise is unavailable.
Our consultants can take on a variety of interim roles, including:
- Financial Manager / Director
- Accountant
- Financial Controller
- Credit Controller
- Other positions within the finance department
Share service center
Share service center (SSC) represents an independent organizational entity within the company that is profit-oriented, has its own resources and manages its own costs. The main goal of SSC is to provide joint services to related entities based on clearly defined processes and knowledge of their operations.
The SSC's primary focus is on providing support activities in finance, human resources, procurement and IT functions. Various studies have shown that moving these processes to a SSC can provide between 20% and 40% of total savings.
Crowe team can help you to:
- reduce your costs and increasing productivity.
- improve cooperation at the level of the entire company or group of legal entities and making decisions based on better information.
- combine best practices and technology to deliver quality services to employees across the company at the lowest possible cost.
- provide clearly and precisely defined processes or services that are adapted to the needs of different business units and their specificities.
- ensure a shorter time for duration of transaction processes.
- reduce potential risk in everyday business, increased transparency and business compliance.
Reporting
Financial reporting is a crucial process for companies and represents the comprehensive review of monthly, quarterly, or yearly financial data to drive better business performance and results.
Companies often use outsourced financial management services for their financial reporting and analysis as the data and information is used by owners, investors, managers, employees, and even the Government when making decisions about the company.
Timely, understandable and comparable financial reports will enable you to better manage debt, make better financial decisions, monitor liquidity and plan future business ventures.

1. Manager reports:
- Planning reports
