CA Abhijeet Dolase & Associates Business Consulting & Virtual CFO Services
Executive Financial Consulting & Virtual CFO Services
As enterprises scale, they reach a stage where strategic financial management becomes critical, yet hiring a full-time Chief Financial Officer (CFO) may not be economically viable. Our Virtual CFO and Business Consulting services bridge this gap. We provide growing corporations, manufacturing units, and technology startups with senior-level financial guidance, risk management, and corporate strategy on a flexible basis.
We operate as strategic partners, working alongside promoters and executive boards to build financial models, implement cost controls, structure credit facilities, and monitor regulatory compliance.
Our Virtual CFO Deliverables
We offer comprehensive corporate financial planning and compliance monitoring:
- Cash Flow & Working Capital Management: Designing cash flow forecasting models, analyzing cash burn rates, and optimizing the working capital cycle (receivables ledger, inventory turnover, payables management).
- Cost Optimization & Margin Analysis: Conducting cost reduction audits, evaluating overhead expenses, performing product-wise profitability reviews, and identifying operational leakages.
- Management Reporting & MIS: Setting up customized Management Information System (MIS) dashboards, reporting key performance indicators (KPIs), and explaining budget vs actual variances to the board.
- Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs): Designing internal financial control frameworks, establishing payment authorization thresholds, and ensuring segregation of duties to prevent fraud.
Banking & Corporate Credit Facilitation
Securing working capital and term loans requires presenting a professional financial profile to commercial lenders:
- CMA Data Sheet Compilation: Preparing the Credit Monitoring Arrangement (CMA) data sheet, including past financials, current year estimates, and subsequent year financial projections required by banks.
- Detailed Project Reports (DPR): Drafting project feasibility studies, market assessments, and capital expenditure forecasts for new factories or expansion projects.
- Bank Representation: Representing the client's financial position, debt-service coverage ratio (DSCR), and credit profile during bank meetings to secure CC/OD or term loan sanctions.
