Why Paradigm Management?

Since 2002 our role has been to help Owners of small to medium sized companies improve their profitability and cash flow.

As a strategic partner, Paradigm Management provides financial leadership which enables Owners to better manage the profits and cash flow of their business.

Typically the financial teams of most businesses are extremely busy processing daily transactions (historical information) and don’t have the time to provide the type of financial analysis that management needs to improve the performance of the business. Paradigm Management works on the future performance of the business by implementing the processes that manage weekly cash flow forecasting, establish critical performance metrics, develop management reports, and a Profit Plan (budget) which provide the roadmap for profit improvements. We understand the importance of incorporating performance metrics into the profit planning and cash flow forecasting to provide the reality of what is really going on in the business. Our experience working with hundreds of companies is hands-on, not theoretical and brings a diversity of expertise unmatched by any internal financial team.

The most important financial benchmark of any business is “cash flow from operations” and is almost always missing from the monthly financial reporting that business owners see. We consider one of our primary obligations is to make sure our clients know what this number is at all times and to understand why it is what it is.

As important as it is to manage the profits of a business the Balance Sheet cannot be ignored. Cash flow cannot be maximized without managing the Balance Sheet. The Balance Sheet also plays a significant role in the relationship with banks and making sure the business has the resources it needs to accomplish its goals.

Paradigm Management offers a cost effective solution to providing the financial leadership your business needs. The amount of our time each business needs is determined by the Owner…there is no need to incur the cost of a full time employee when that much time is not needed. All work is performed on site with the management team, thereby developing a close nit, hard-working team.

Unfortunately most Owners don’t know what they don’t know if they have never had the benefit of Paradigm Management. Processing daily transactions and producing monthly financial statements ensures that the business fulfills its compliance requirements but this information is seldom used in improving the performance of the business.

• Weekly cash flow forecasting

• Profit and breakeven analysis
