What every engagement includes

  • NDA-first confidentiality on all data intake — see our data handling approach.
  • Senior-led execution with a review gate before anything ships.
  • Excel deliverables with linked schedules and visible, auditable formulas.
  • Source-to-summary reconciliation so every figure ties back to evidence.
  • A 2–3 page executive note covering red flags and opportunities.

Typical timeline: first-cut databook inside 72 hours, reconciled core schedules within week one, and a full-scope quality of earnings in 3–4 weeks — the market-standard window. Automation pilots run 2–4 weeks.
