Financial leadership for your next stage of business. LWD Accounting provides outsourced CFO support, including financial modelling, cash flow forecasting, board reporting, and project financial oversight.
Bring a strategic perspective to decisions about spending, funding, and growth without committing to a full-time CFO role.
Growth introduces choices that a bank balance cannot answer on its own. Can the business fund a new project? What happens if customers pay later? How would higher costs affect the plan? CFO-level analysis helps structure these discussions.
A practical example: A new contract may increase revenue while requiring staff and supplier payments before the customer pays. A cash flow forecast helps explore the funding gap before the business commits.
Agree on a scope that reflects your decisions, reporting needs, and available financial information.
Models and forecasts support future planning. Testing assumptions about revenue, costs, and payment timing helps compare possible outcomes. A forecast is a planning tool, so its assumptions should be reviewed as circumstances change.
Board reporting combines results with analysis and commentary. A useful board pack explains significant movements, highlights exceptions, and identifies questions for management. Power BI reporting can support the agreed presentation.
Support with lender relationships and covenant monitoring. Keeping reporting dates, required information, and agreed measures visible helps management prepare for lender discussions and identify matters needing early attention.
Financial support for project budgets, costs, and completion planning. Comparing spending and outstanding commitments with the budget helps identify where the expected project outcome may have changed.
An outsourced CFO arrangement may suit a business that needs senior financial input without a full-time appointment. The right level of support depends on complexity, management capacity, and the decisions ahead.
Start with the business problem rather than a long list of reports. A focused question makes it easier to identify the information and analysis that matter.
Outline your goals, upcoming decisions, current financial reporting, and main concerns.
Confirm scope, responsibilities, access needs, deliverables, review frequency, and fees.
Agree how findings, assumptions, and outstanding actions will be discussed with management.
Based in Piara Waters, LWD Accounting supports businesses seeking a clearer financial direction. Contact the team to discuss your requirements.
For your initial discussion, have recent accounts, existing forecasts, upcoming commitments, and your key business questions ready.
An outsourced CFO provides senior financial input under an agreed engagement. This may include forecasting, financial analysis, board reporting, and support for funding or project decisions.
A bookkeeper focuses on recording and organising transactions. A CFO uses financial information to assess options, plan ahead, and support management. Reliable bookkeeping provides an important foundation.
Not every business requires a full-time appointment. An outsourced arrangement can provide a defined level of support. Suitability depends on your business complexity, goals, and budget.
No. A forecast depends on assumptions and available information. Its value lies in testing scenarios, identifying possible pressures, and updating the plan as new information becomes available.
No. Clear financial information can support lender discussions, but approval and lending terms remain the lender’s decision.
Fees depend on the scope, financial complexity, required analysis, and frequency of involvement. Contact LWD Accounting to discuss your needs and request a quote.
