This kind of analysis allows in a very short time a neutral and transparent vision of the whole company or a part of it.

Through a period of time that varies between 5 and 10 working days, depending on the complexity of the situation, the manager from FONTENAY MANAGERS will analyze the way the company operates and will be able to present an overall view of the activity :

  • The positive points of the current management and the points which require improvement.
  • The adequacy between the company means and its objectives.
  • The adequacy of the team and the organization.
  • Strategic points that should draw the management's attention in the short term.

The flash analysis is an excellent means to get a neutral and transparent vision of the company, when it is going through difficulties, it is going to be purchased, it is being sold, or fresh capital is needed.
It is also an excellent means to get a point of view on the management’s ability, before taking any decision on the human aspects. This analysis may direct the future of the company.

FONTENAY MANAGERS is not dealing with details but will identify the priorities. Rather than being an audit, it is a « helicopter view » that starts from a general view and then deepens in the details where necessary.

The exercise requires that the manager from FONTENAY MANAGERS has access to the key men of the company and to facts and figures. It is necessary to convince the top executive that this step is meant to help him and to ease his dialogue with the shareholder.
