It’s one of those assignments that really shapes you. A manufacturing SME in Bavaria, well-established in the market, with healthy order books – yet within a matter of months, the finance department had been completely decimated. One accountant was on maternity leave. Another had retired. One controller had resigned, and the second followed him into retirement. It all became too much for the remaining accountants – they left too. Of the original five bookkeepers and two controllers, virtually none remained.
But that was merely the immediate trigger. When I took a closer look at the company, I discovered two underlying structural problems that had remained hidden for years due to staff shortages. Firstly: inventory levels that had been built up in a haphazard manner. Some items had a calculated shelf life of over 1,000 years. No one had noticed this because there was no one to look into it. Secondly: outstanding receivables of €3 million, with no systematic dunning process in place. And thirdly, the most insidious aspect: in recent years, the company had issued sufficient guarantees which, behind the scenes, were straining the liquidity framework at the principal bank – without anyone having made this transparent.
We have phased this out step by step over a period of more than twelve months. First, we went digital: since then, incoming invoices have been sent directly into the system via email and are automatically posted once approved. Bank transactions are no longer manually entered, but are automatically downloaded and posted. Then there were the guarantees: these were outsourced to a specialist service provider – this had an immediate and noticeable positive impact on our liquidity and separated the guarantee facility from the operational bank limit.
At the same time, we have established a systematic accounts receivable management system – featuring standard reminder stages, clear escalation procedures and a weekly review. Within two months, outstanding receivables were halved from €3 million to less than €1.5 million.
The final step was inventory management. Here, we worked with the sales and production teams to draw up a detailed production plan. Today, inventory levels stand at around 30% of their original level – resulting in less capital tied up, reduced storage space requirements and a lower risk of stock becoming obsolete.
The result after just over a year: instead of 5 accountants and 2 controllers, there are now 3.5 accountants and 1 controller. The finance department delivers on time, the stock levels are healthy, receivables are under control, and the guarantees no longer place a strain on the bank’s credit limit.
That assignment became my calling. Because I realised that most small and medium-sized businesses don’t have a business model problem. They have a structural problem in their finance department – one that nobody notices as long as day-to-day operations are somehow keeping going. Until they stop. That’s exactly where I’ve been focusing my efforts for over 30 years.
