The role of the CFO has changed dramatically. In addition to ensuring regulatory compliance, overseeing management reporting and controlling transaction processing, the finance organization is often asked to support enterprise strategic initiatives in an increasingly competitive business environment.

Organizational leadership has turned to the finance organization to improve strategic decision-making, manage business risks, monitor and improve organization performance, and drive shareholder value. These additional responsibilities come at a time when the finance organization continues to be subject to more scrutiny and regulation than ever before, making it difficult to determine where to begin focusing improvement efforts.

As the role of the CFO continues to expand, precious resources within accounting and finance organizations have naturally become stretched to capacity. On top of inherent structural demands, certain events often drive the requirement for highly capable external teams to provide assistance when it matters most.
