| Line | Actual | vs budget |
|---|---|---|
| Net sales | €842,300 | +4.1% F |
| Gross margin | €268,900 | −1.8% A |
| Logistics | (€51,200) | −2.3% A |

| Contribution margin | €169,000 | −3.6% A |
Commentary: gross margin is down 1.9 pp of sales; the volume effect (+€11k) does not offset the price/mix effect (−€16k). Review terms for the customers with the largest net price variance.
The data is already in the ERP. What is usually missing is a process that delivers it reconciled and on time, and the analytical capacity to interpret it.
Reporting depends on manual extracts and reconciliations. By the time the report arrives, there is little room left to act on the month.
Each department works from its own file and its own definitions. The leadership meeting is spent reconciling figures instead of deciding.
Recurring work crowds out improvement projects, and reporting automation slips from one year to the next.
Two functions on one data model: reliable figures and figures that support decisions.
Figures reconciled with the ledger, on time and fully traceable.
Performance analysis built for decisions.
Projects with fixed scope and fixed fees, never billed by the hour. Ongoing service through a monthly retainer.
We integrate your ERP into a single data model and scheduled reporting, reconciled with the ledger.
We choose with you the tool that fits your systems architecture and your team, implement it and transfer the know-how.
Ongoing evolution of your reporting and, if you need it, the financial and business controller role.
Prefer to start with a narrower scope? We run a financial diagnostic of your reporting process and margin structure, with an improvement plan prioritised by impact and effort. We also advise on pricing policy and margins by channel.

We are a Barcelona-based firm specialising in financial reporting and management control for mid-sized companies. We combine finance leadership experience in a multinational setting with technical depth in SAP and BI tools.
In most organisations the data already exists: the cost lies in preparing it. We automate that preparation so your finance team can focus on analysis and management works from one reconciled set of numbers.
How we operate
A management control professional who works per project or on a monthly retainer. You get the function without adding a full-time position.
Sales, margin, P&L and budget reports are fed from the ERP through scheduled loads, with no manual extracts or rework.
Mainly SAP (BW, Analysis for Office and SAP Analytics Cloud). Other ERPs and accounting packages are integrated through a connector or a structured export. The reporting layer is chosen to fit your stack: SAP Analytics Cloud, Power BI or Excel with Power Query.
Every load includes reconciliation controls against the general ledger balances. Differences are flagged and documented before the report is distributed.
No. Everything is built in your systems and on your licences, under a confidentiality agreement. AI-assisted commentary is only enabled with your explicit approval. When we finish, the reporting is yours and fully documented.
Each project has a fixed scope and a fixed fee, never billed by the hour. Maintenance and the controller role are provided on a monthly retainer.
Between 4 and 8 weeks for automated reporting, and 3 to 4 weeks for an annual budget with tracking. It depends on source data quality and your team’s availability.
We review your current reporting process and assess, with no commitment, whether there is a fit and what the scope would be.
