Strengthening FP&A for an Agri-Product Tech Startup

Strengthening FP&A for an Agri-Product Tech Startup

Project Background & Objective

An agri-product supply chain technology startup operating in a fast-changing, highly regulated environment approached AND to bring structure and reliability to its financial operations. Despite strong growth potential, the company lacked clear visibility into its financial health limiting timely decisions and investor confidence.

Against this backdrop, our engagement focused on the following:

  • Establishing structured FP&A processes for budgeting, forecasting, and reporting
  • Enabling real-time financial visibility to support better capital allocation and investor communication
  • Accounting for regulatory complexities and evolving compliance requirements

Our Approach

  • Integrated Financial Modelling: Developed a dynamic financial model incorporating monthly, quarterly, and annual budgeting with flexible revenue and cost drivers aligned to the company's operations.

  • SOP Development & Departmental Alignment: Created standard operating procedures for budgeting, reporting, and cross-functional coordination, with clearly defined roles and data ownership across teams

  • Real-Time Financial Dashboards: Implemented dashboards to monitor cash flow, burn rate, and departmental expenses, offering leadership real-time insights.

  • Ongoing FP&A Support: Continued engagement to refine and update financial processes in response to business growth, regulatory shifts, and market evolution.
