CMG Financial Solutions™ › Manufacturing

For manufacturers

Full schedule. Thin margins.

The plant is full and the orders keep coming, but margin doesn’t follow. Usually the cost picture is the problem, not the people.

What we hear

Your concerns, answered.

We’re busy, but margins keep slipping.→

We rebuild cost by product and customer, so you can see which work makes money and which doesn’t.

I don’t know what each product really costs.→

True costs, with labor and overhead included, tied back to the financials every month.

Too much cash is sitting in inventory.→

Inventory and receivables targets, tracked weekly, so cash comes back out of the plant.

Recognize these?

Most manufacturers know the plant. Few have the time or the cost detail to see where margin is lost.
