Strategy is the overall path to achieving the Vision and mission. Individual initiatives, managed as projects, are the mechanisms used to move the organization forward on that strategic path. The failure of a company to establish an effective system of corporate governance produces a major strategic and operational risk to the company, as well as to its investors and shareholders. Corporate governance deficiencies may even jeopardize the continued existence of a company. In consequent, it is necessary to constantly monitor a company’s practices, the composition of its board of directors, the company’s competitive and market conditions, and/or mergers and acquisitions.

According to Gartner, “Business Intelligence (BI) is an umbrella term that includes the applications, infrastructure and tools, and best practices that enable access to and analysis of information to improve and optimize decisions and performance”. It unites data, technology, analytics, and human knowledge to optimize business decisions and ultimately drive an enterprise's success. In addition, financial analysis is crucial for gaining a thorough understanding of a company’s performance. Without it, management decisions are not based on fact, and they thus put the financial stability of the company at great risk.
Our Services include:
- Alignment of the BI initiative to the business strategy, governance structure and practices
- Designing the BI to improve performance and reporting and modelling an integrated information management framework
- Selection and implementation of an appropriate platform

Financial management is essential to the successful operation of any organization. The finance professionals work in collaboration with the rest of the management team to ensure an effective and efficient acquisition as well as the proper maintenance and use of scarce resources in the best interest of the organization’s stakeholders. However, driven by changes occurring to the organizations, the finance function is also pressured to enhance the value-creating ability of the company while reducing the cost of basic transactions and enhancing the quality, reliability, and responsiveness of the systems that provide information for use both within and outside the organization.
