Expertise
The people of Addedo have an average of ten years experience in this space. Most of us have worked for leading software vendors such as Cognos, Hyperion and Frango. In addition, many of us have had leadership roles at Group Finance functions some as business controllers others as CFOs.
Focus
We are in the market to serve the Group Finance function. This is where we have our core of experience and knowledge. Initially, we are focusing on financial reporting and consolidation.
This means improvement of processes, helping you measuring results and managing financial performance. We assist you with services and support around your software applications as well offer resource consultancy. We have started to expand our offering to include consulting also on strategic financial planning and business intelligence through the Group Finance function.
Cost Efficiency
We strive for operational excellence with highly efficient administration and back office routines. Our rates are competitive. We manage towards efficient and effective projects so that we can maximize your return on investment.
Balance
We want to have fun, but gaining an honest pay for our competence. We give to gain. For us balance is key; and we believe it is necessary with balance in all aspects of life to keep relationships at work and at home in harmony.
Integrity
Addedo conducts business with the highest degree of integrity and respect.
Customer orientation
Most importantly, our experience and knowledge enables us to understand user perspectives. We know what is expected from a consultant working with Group Finance. Our services are set to achieve our customers’ business as well as process goals. We set high levels of standards, relational, professional and aesthetical. We believe that you want to have a close customer relationship with us.
In our experience, Group Finance is often under pressure and can be a very demanding job. A quick look at studies shows that the turnover on CFOs has never been higher – an evidence of a tough job. This has taught us to be available, knowledgeable as well as pragmatic and customer oriented when it comes to service models and response times. The pressure is on and we are here to support.
Responding to Market Needs
Not many have realized the specific customer requirements mentioned above. We have, and we are driven by the great opportunity we see ahead of us! We see a couple of reasons for this opportunity to be significant.
Many software suppliers have a strong focus on license sales. Service is often outsourced to partners. We have realised however, that many of these partners do not deliver within the space of financial group reporting. Focus as well as knowledge is lacking. Many enterprises’ group finance functions are forced to look for a more intimate service model with specialised partners, leaving us with a great opportunity.
We constitute a group of very experienced people within the financial group reporting and planning space with a great track record. We are used to work very closely with our clients and we are used to deliver.
Looking forward to working with you!
Everybody here at ÅF has been super happy with Addedo and specifically you Cecilia – your competence, your commitment and your social talent. If it were not for you keeping everything together, we would definitely not have made it. You are on top of the list for our future needs. Johan, thank you for lending us a SUPER PROJECT MANAGER.
