Working Capital Optimisation
Unlocking cash trapped in your business — without cutting corners or damaging relationships.
The Problem
Many profitable businesses run short of cash because their working capital is poorly managed. Cash sits locked in overdue receivables, excessive inventory, or inefficient payment terms. The result: unnecessary borrowing, missed opportunities, and constant pressure on the finance team.
What We Do
- Analyse your full working capital cycle — debtors, creditors, inventory, and work-in-progress
- Benchmark your performance against industry norms and identify improvement opportunities
- Develop targeted initiatives for debtor collection, creditor management, and stock optimisation
- Model the cash impact of proposed changes so you can prioritise by value
- Support implementation — process changes, system improvements, team coaching
What You Get
- A detailed working capital diagnostic with quantified improvement opportunities
- A prioritised action plan ranked by cash impact and ease of implementation
- Hands-on support to deliver changes and embed new processes
- Measurable improvement in cash conversion cycle days
Typical engagements identify cash release equivalent to several weeks of operating costs, often achievable within one to two quarters.
