Sue Baker is our Manufacturing Specialist in the Team 

"My own extensive experience of manufacturing finance, inventory management, costing and lean manufacturing implementation provides very practical knowledge that makes the difference - I'm an experienced shop floor manager as well as a Finance Director and I have also run my own manufacturing business and implemented lean accounting. I can clear the fog with key issues like profitability and cash flow management. You gain a financial astuteness so you can make confident decisions about now and the future," explains Sue

 
Some financial management challenges are unique to manufacturing :-

• The difficulty in getting accurate and consistent gross margin calculations every month.
• Making sure that work in progress is valued correctly
• Having inventory control systems that you can rely on 
• Understanding the underlying profitability of each product range or key customers
• Quoting prices with confidence that getting the order will be good news for profitability
• Cash-flow challenges of funding work-in-progress through to your customer paying
• Manufacturing KPI's (Key Performance Indicators)

Sue can provide a Manufacturing Finance Director level service that provides you with accurate and trusted financial reporting for manufacturing at a fraction of the cost of bringing an experienced qualified accountant onto your payroll.

A combination of time on site backed up with telephone and web conferencing support can be designed to exactly meet your needs. You can even flex this service to provide more or less - as and when you need it.
