Scores shown are illustrative and do not describe any real company.

Five dimensions, scored on the same scale so they can be compared against each other and against the same company a period later. The score is not the deliverable — it is the index into it.

Key findings

Findings, stated as decisions.

Each finding names what was observed, why it matters, and what should be done. The examples below are illustrative.

  1. High 01

    Customer concentration represents a material commercial risk.

    The top five customers account for a share of revenue at which the loss of one materially changes the year.

    Quantify the exposure per customer and set a concentration target for the next four quarters.

  2. High 02

    Accounts receivable grew faster than revenue.

    Collection is slowing relative to sales. The gap is financed by the company, and it does not show up in the income statement.

    Review credit terms by customer segment and separate genuine disputes from routine late payment.

  3. Medium 03

    Inventory turnover is below expected performance.

    A share of working capital is held in items that are not moving at the rate the rest of the catalogue does.

    Identify the slow-moving items by value and decide, per item, whether to discount, return or stop reordering.

  4. Medium 04

    Gross margin decreased in a key product category.

    The decline is driven by input cost, not by price. It has been absorbed rather than passed through.

    Compare purchase price movement against list price by category and decide where to reprice.

What you receive

A document your management team can work from.

01

Executive summary

The situation in one page, written for someone who will not read the rest.

02

Financial analysis

Results, margins, costs and cash, restated in managerial terms with history.

03

Operational analysis

Inventory, purchasing, suppliers and the working capital they consume.

04

Key risks

What could damage the business, ordered by exposure rather than by ease of fixing.

05

Key opportunities

Where margin, cash or capacity is recoverable, with an estimated size.

06

Recommended actions

A short, sequenced list with an owner and a way to measure each one.

How it works

Four steps, no system access required.

  1. 01

    Scope conversation

    A short call to understand the business, the period to analyze and the questions management already has.

  2. 02

    You send the information

    Files you download from your own systems. Forcelis never asks for your tax portal or banking credentials.

  3. 03

    Analysis

    Ingestion, normalization and analysis on the platform, followed by review by the people who will present it.

  4. 04

    Findings session

    A working session on the results and the recommended actions, with the full document delivered afterwards.

What is needed from you

The minimum is the first item. Everything else improves the depth of the analysis but is not required to start.

  • CFDI for the period — issued and received, including payment complements
  • Trial balance or general ledger, if available
  • Inventory report, if the business holds stock
  • Sales detail by customer and product, if it is kept outside invoicing

If something is missing, the affected metric is reported as unavailable with the reason. It is not estimated.

Start with the diagnostic.

It establishes the baseline. Everything after it — advisory, platform, managed services — is scoped from evidence rather than from a proposal.
