In other words, we use data analytics to tell the organization’s story and the areas that can be refined. We look at features like:

• The assessment of whether the entity’s current assets and investments are the best use of the entity’s excess working capital.
• The ratio analysis calculates ratios such as gross turnover, total cost, gross margin, net profit, the rate of expenses versus turnover, and the income versus gross income ratio.
• Regulating which products or product lines generate the most significant portion of the organization’s net earnings.
• The devising of internal reports for executive leadership to support their decision making.
• Break-even analysis to determine what you need to sell, monthly or annually, to cover your costs of doing business, in other words, your break-even point.
• Variance analysis to determine overall over-or under-performance for a particular reporting period. For each item, we assess its favorability by comparing actual costs versus standard costs.
• Measuring KPIs (key performance indicators) to exhibit how successfully the business achieves its key business objectives.
