Francis focuses on SMEs, where an internal accountant is active.  He has the day-to-day operations perfectly under control, but doesn't always have the time to go deeper into the figures.  The bookkeeper relies on the external accounting firm, which usually looks at things from a fiscal perspective.

A strong accounting firm will assist the entrepreneur in matters of VAT and taxation.  "Where can we optimize fiscally, keep the SG&A and personal income tax as low as possible, where are the pitfalls in VAT administration and how can we avoid them, ...?"

In a lot of cases, too little attention is paid to the internal reporting of the day-to-day operations.   

Francis Demuynck creates a customized management reporting for your company. He examines the needs and gets to work with the data of your company. As an Excel wizard, he sets up a system that is easy to use for the business manager and the internal accountant. No business intelligence with a heavy ERP program underneath, but an Excel tool as a guide for the manager, which helps to further develop a dashboard with the right KPIs. "What are the gross margins? What are our hard runners? How is the stock evolving? What are our overhead costs per department? Is the current system performing well enough or should we invest in something else?"

You can also contact Francis Demuynck if you are looking for an interim financial manager or an internal controller.
