Data's a mess. Planning's in Excel.
Reporting takes forever.
We fix all three. Weeks, not years.
No jargon. No 200-slide decks.
You can carry on as you are...
Most finance teams we meet have normalised chaos. Month-end panic isn't a crisis anymore - it's just how it is. The spreadsheet only one person understands? That's just Dave's spreadsheet. The data that doesn't quite match? You'll fix it next quarter.
The Sunday afternoon reconciliations? Part of the job. The board asking a question your model can't answer? You'll figure something out. You always do.
And that's the thing - you've made it work. Your team is talented. They've held it together with duct tape and determination. Nobody's called it a crisis because you haven't let it become one.
But it doesn't have to be this way.
The gap between where you are and where you could be isn't a two-year transformation programme. It's not ripping everything out. It's a few focused decisions, made well.
Staying where you are is a valid choice. But if you're still reading, you're probably ready for a different one.
The challenges keeping Finance Directors up at night
Month-end takes 12+ days
Your team scrambles to close the books while the board waits for numbers that are already outdated by the time they arrive.
"Which spreadsheet is current?"
Version control is a nightmare. Critical decisions are made on conflicting data while your team plays detective tracking down the source.
Board asks, you can't answer
"What if revenue drops 15%?" Simple scenario questions require 2-3 days of manual rework. The CFO shouldn't need to promise "I'll get back to you."
Errors hiding in plain sight
Broken links, circular references, manual overrides - your forecasts carry risks you can't see until audit finds them first.
FP&A talent keeps leaving
Your best people didn't earn finance degrees to spend 80% of their time copy-pasting. They want strategic impact, not data entry.
Technology paralysis
Anaplan? Pigment? Planful? Power BI? Every vendor says they're the answer. You need unbiased guidance, not another sales pitch.
A clear path from chaos to clarity
We don't push products. We start by understanding your world, then guide you to solutions that actually fit.
The Bolt Blueprint
We audit what you have, map what you need, and build a transformation roadmap tailored to your reality. In 2-3 weeks, you'll know exactly what to fix and how.

* Often waived if we proceed to a full engagement.
† Depends on scope and complexity. Simple projects can go live in weeks.
Companies working with Bolt typically reduce their close cycle by 40-60%, achieve real-time scenario capability, and reach platform self-sufficiency within 3 months of go-live.
We went from a 10-day close to 3 days. The board stopped asking where the numbers came from. They just trust them now.
