Executive dashboard for finance and accounting firms

In short

A executive dashboard for a finance business tackles one specific leak: the numbers that tell you whether the firm and each engagement are making money, WIP, realisation, write-offs, lockup, capacity by team, live in your practice management tool, your accounting package, and a partner's spreadsheet, and none of them line up. Assembling a true picture takes days, so by the time you see a job or a client is unprofitable, months of margin are already gone. Bamco builds it around the tools you already run, so it fits your operation rather than forcing you to change how you work.

The specific leak this plugs

The numbers that tell you whether the firm and each engagement are making money, WIP, realisation, write-offs, lockup, capacity by team, live in your practice management tool, your accounting package, and a partner's spreadsheet, and none of them line up. Assembling a true picture takes days, so by the time you see a job or a client is unprofitable, months of margin are already gone.

This is not a generic problem with a generic tool bolted on. It is a specific leak in a finance business, and the system is built to close it. You can see the full picture of where a finance business leaks margin on the finance industry page.

What Bamco builds

A dashboard that pulls practice and financial data from the systems you already run, your practice management tool, your accounting package, your time and billing, and puts real firm performance on one screen, current: WIP and lockup by client, realisation and write-offs by job, capacity and recovery by team. It reconciles time worked against fees per engagement, surfaces the clients trending the wrong way, and lets you drill from the firm view into a single job. We build the integrations so the numbers pull live rather than being keyed in.

Two ways in
Ready to talk to the team who would build it?

Bring us the idea you already have, or book an audit and we map where the money is leaking. Either way, you deal directly with the senior team that designs and builds it.

What changes in week one, and by month three

Week one. From week one you stop waiting for the month-end WIP report, because the current position of every engagement is on one screen, pulled from the same systems your team already uses.

Month three. By month three you are catching the jobs and clients that slip early, while there is still time to raise a fee or reset scope, rather than discovering an unprofitable engagement in a report when the margin is already written off.

What it costs

Engagements typically start around $50k and are scoped after a systems audit, priced as a fraction of what a legacy build of the same capability would have quoted. You get a fixed-scope proposal with a real number before anything is built, and you own what we build. The point is not the price. It is that a well-built executive dashboard for a finance business is meant to pay for itself in multiples, by plugging a leak that is costing you every week it stays open.

Common questions

Questions, answered

Can it pull WIP from Karbon and figures from Xero at the same time?
Yes, that is the point of building one. We build the integrations into your practice management and accounting systems, reconcile time worked against fees per engagement, and present live WIP, realisation, write-offs and lockup on one screen, so numbers from tools that never talked finally line up.
Will it work with the tools our finance business already uses?
Yes. Bamco builds around and into your existing stack, tools like Xero, Zoho, MYOB and the rest of what you run, rather than asking you to replace them. The executive dashboard connects to what you have so data flows instead of being re-keyed, and you keep the systems your team already knows.
