Most quietly fail - not by collapsing, but by handing you a system nobody trusts, eighteen months late. AIS Consulting is a finance transformation consultancy - and one of the UK's most experienced CCH Tagetik practices. We design delivery so that doesn't happen to you.
From strategy to numbers
How finance turns business decisions into accurate reporting, planning and insight. Pick a board strategy and follow it down to the finance platform and back.
“Buy three businesses this year and deliver the synergy case.”
Three new entities arrive mid-year - different charts of accounts, different systems, different close calendars.
Folds every new entity into one consolidation and one chart of accounts - in days, not a quarter of manual mapping.
“Group profitability including the acquisition, from day one - and whether the synergy case is actually landing.”
…and the board sets the next target. The loop only works if the finance system can see the whole organisation — which is the point of one platform.
This is where we do our best work: groups whose structure keeps changing - growing by acquisition, expanding into new markets, backed by private equity, or simply scaling fast. Every new entity and every new market changes the shape of the group, so consolidation is never finished. A platform that can't keep up leaves the board flying on last quarter's numbers.
Why one platform
We could implement five different tools adequately. Instead we're 100% focused on CCH Tagetik - 10+ years of planning, consolidation, corporate tax and ESG in one place, owned by finance rather than IT. One platform is how we get deep enough to stand behind our estimates, and why our timelines don't escalate.
Close
We fix the process before we touch the system. That's why the days come out of the close and stay out.

“The CPM analyser is a strategic framework that helped us work out the best way forward to improve our finance processes - a useful tool before embarking on any projects.”
James Downey, Head of Financial Planning, Northern Rail
Northern Rail used the CPM analyser - the assessment now rebuilt as the Finance Value Score.
Finance Value Score
Most finance functions get told they're behind. Very few get told by how much, against whom, or what it's worth to fix. The Finance Value Score gives you a number out of 100, a business case built from your own answers rather than an industry average, and a roadmap - in two minutes, without speaking to us.
No login for the snapshot.
It's the CPM analyser rebuilt as an app - the assessment 200+ UK organisations have already used to direct their system investments.
The Northstar Workshop is two hours, costs nothing, and ends with a blueprint and a business case you own - whether or not you ever work with us. 200+ UK organisations have been through the assessment behind it.
We'll be in touch once. No newsletter unsubscribe games.
We map where your finance function actually loses time. Process first, system second - in that order, always.
Target operating model and delivery plan, designed together - split them and the programme drifts.
A focused walkthrough on your real data, so you're buying evidence rather than a promise.
Senior consultants who have done this before, on the one platform we know best.
The real question isn't which system to buy - it's what the board is trying to achieve, and whether a platform even gets you there. Talk to us before you sign. Sometimes the honest answer is that you don't need one.
