Maufacturing client sector
For manufacturing clients there needs to be a focus on costs, stock and work in progress, as well as the usual margins and other accounting requirements.
Who we work with:
Our services are aimed at businesses that produce finished goods from raw materials. Typically, this could be anything from fabrication to assembly of finished products and all stages in between.
Our sector knowledge:
The prime benefits are understanding the timelines and lead times and the effects these will have on the businesses cashflow from ordering to final payments being received. All of these are key items when looking at profitability, finances and funding requirements.
Alexander Accountancy’s approach:
Timely management information can be essential in some manufacturing businesses. We help decision makers decide the size of orders they can service, the type of customers they should be looking for and the payment terms they can support.
How we help the manufacturing sector:
For those businesses that need the regular management information and help with decision making, this can be provided as reports or in person, and delivered for specified periods, usually monthly or quarterly.
One of the benefits of using Alexander Accountancy is that some of the Directors have previously held the position of company accountant or financial director in industries including large manufacturing businesses.
Our sector connections:
Commercial businesses often assume practice accountants are compliance led, whilst the senior directors at Alexander Accountancy have worked in industry and understand those dynamics.
