Strategic Advisory: Commercial Judgement, Profit Discipline, and Exit Readiness

We help leadership teams define, test, and govern the commercial and financial frameworks that sit beneath growth plans, so profit, risk, and enterprise value are shaped deliberately rather than explained after the fact.

Our advisory work is grounded in lived CFO and COO experience. We engage where the underlying commercial and financial business model is defined, tested, and refined, including pricing logic, cost structure assumptions, delivery commitments, governance choices, and capital allocation. The objective is not more reporting or analysis, but a coherent model that enables better decisions to be made earlier and with greater confidence.

Bosch CG is often engaged by firms considering fractional CFO or COO support, where the underlying need is independent commercial judgement rather than additional management capacity. We help leadership teams strengthen the commercial frameworks that sit beneath growth plans, operating models, and transaction readiness so decisions are made earlier and with clearer understanding of profit, cashflow, risk, and enterprise value.

Commercial Judgement Under Growth

As IT services firms scale, complexity compounds faster than most leadership structures evolve. Revenue may continue to grow, yet margins soften, delivery friction increases, and decision making becomes reactive. Commercial weaknesses often surface only through retrospective results, when options to correct course are limited.

Bosch CG works with leadership teams to ensure that growth is supported by a coherent commercial and financial model, rather than a series of isolated decisions. We focus on the assumptions that underpin growth and challenge them where they are optimistic, untested, or misaligned, before they are embedded in contracts, operating plans, cost structures, or organisational design.

CFO / COO Sparring Partner to Leadership Teams

We act as an experienced sparring partner to the CEO, leadership team, and Board. This is not facilitation or framework led consulting. It is direct, experience based challenge informed by more than two decades of hands on CFO and COO responsibility, including leading organisations through sustained growth, operational change, and multiple acquisitions and integrations.

Our role is to test assumptions, surface risk early, and support leadership teams in navigating structural trade offs before they are locked into execution. This includes decisions such as senior leadership hires, delivery model shifts, new offerings, or market expansion, choices that often feel strategically right but materially reshape the cost base, margin logic, and KPI profile of the business. We bring the governance mindset, commercial discipline, and credibility typically associated with much larger organisations, while remaining proportionate to the scale and maturity of the firm.

What Our Advisory Enables

• Sustained Profit Focus
  A sharper and more deliberate focus on both short term and long term profitability, ensuring that growth decisions improve profit outcomes over time rather than dilute them.
• Commercial Decision Discipline
  Clear thinking and constructive challenge around the commercial framework that governs pricing logic, resourcing assumptions, capacity commitments, and delivery economics, before those decisions become costly or difficult to unwind.
• Executive Decision Confidence
  Stronger confidence in forward looking decisions through alignment between strategic intent and commercial reality, enabling leaders to steer direction rather than rationalise outcomes.
• Sell Side Credibility and Exit Readiness
  A business that stands up to buyer scrutiny, with coherent financial logic, disciplined operations, and fewer red flags during diligence, supporting premium outcomes whether a transaction is imminent or optional.

How We Typically Engage

Our advisory relationships are designed to support leadership thinking rather than replace management execution. Engagements are typically ongoing and create a steady rhythm of review, challenge, and course correction as the business evolves.

Our advisory is supported by a proprietary toolset that accelerates insight and sharpens commercial discussion.

Bosch CG works alongside leadership teams as an independent and commercially focused advisor, helping shape the decisions that matter most while management teams retain full ownership of execution.
