Consulting

Companies thrive when their people, processes and tools are all aligned behind shared objectives. At Forvis Mazars, we help leaders across the business – from top management through to finance, risk, IT and HR – to achieve alignment and deliver peak performance through collaboration, thoughtful advice and up-to-date technical and digital expertise.

Approach

We believe people are at the centre of successful change. As such, we combine our technical expertise, agility and the latest technology with a deep understanding of your needs, context and culture to co-create answers that drive the results you are looking for.

Our expert consultants work as one, integrated, international team across geographies and sectors. Combining our global expertise with deep local understanding, we can support you successfully from strategy to implementation in every market you operate in.

We offer a broad range of management, risk, technology and digital consulting services: from change management and post-merger integration to internal audit and enterprise solution design. For example, our risk consultants can help design and implement processes to demonstrate sustained compliance with new business regulations, while our technology and management consultants can deploy cutting-edge process automation tools to redesign critical business processes and enhance efficiency.

Whatever your challenge, your Forvis Mazars team will work hand-in-hand with you to find the answer that best fits your business. By aligning your people and organisation behind the right processes and technology, we improve performance, reduce risk, and ultimately give you greater confidence in the performance of your business.

Management consulting

Achieve outstanding results for your business

In today’s competitive climate, businesses need to empower their talent to be the best they can be. To be able to perform for the long-term, organisational behaviours and processes must be effective in all economic climates. Our specialists excel in consulting across everything from organisational design to business function strategy to cash flow optimisation and can enhance your business so that it operates at its best.

Our approach

Fine-tuning a business requires a fundamental understanding of how it operates. Processes must be optimised, cash flow is critical and technology must be fit for purpose. We believe this can only be achieved by assembling a dedicated team based around a company’s needs, operating environment and culture.

By working as an extension to your existing workforce, our team of management consultants use their experience and knowledge to spot the areas where your business can be reinvigorated and enhanced. We want our clients to know exactly where improvements are possible and be clear on the opportunities available.

We do not speak in riddles. We tell it like it is. Our performance improvement specialists aim to eliminate organisational weaknesses and enhance your company’s strengths so it is in the best shape it can be.

Risk consulting

Tailored solutions for assurance and value creation in a changing world

Technological change and deep transformations present new and unknown risks, but also new opportunities to create value. In today’s volatile and ever more complex business environment, companies need to have confidence in their governance, risk management and internal control processes. At Forvis Mazars, we equip our clients with the knowledge, techniques, and solutions to anticipate and respond to critical challenges. We understand that firms need to be able to seize new opportunities in a quick and nimble fashion. This is why we build tailored risk management frameworks, systems and controls that are the right fit for our clients to steer them towards future success.

Our approach

We are proud of our track record in building client business resilience. We believe companies with solid risk management processes and risk registers are better able to meet the demands of customers, regulators, investors, employees and directors. With operating environments constantly shifting, we work with our clients to ensure they have the ability to spot emerging risks and to address shortcomings.

We do not believe that a ‘one size fits all’ risk management approach is the best way to protect long-term performance and innovation. That is why we take the time to understand our clients’ sectors, priorities, culture and customers before building a suitable team. Get in touch with us to get the most out of your financial risk management or operational risk management.

Technology and digital consulting

Amplify your business with innovative solutions
The number and sophistication of digital solutions at an organisation’s fingertips continues to explode. They help us work faster, smarter and better than ever before. But they are complex and difficult to manage without the right in-house expertise. That is where our experts come in – our specialists know the solutions and technology inside-out and can get you up and running quickly, with better results, and more time to focus on the core of your business.

Our approach

We take a flexible, tailored approach that recognises every organisation is different. Some companies need instant and intense assistance, for example when they discover a cyber breach. Others may require a sustained, long-term collaboration as they explore and implement multi-year projects such as migration to cloud and microservices.

We combine in-depth technical knowledge, a personal approach and our sector expertise to create innovative answers and solutions that are right for each client. We can drive administrative cost savings through robotic process automation, and speed up audit using machine learning. We also have a strong and dedicated focus on advanced data analytics. We believe that the ability to transform raw data into actionable insights is a vital skill for today’s successful business.

All our technology and digital consulting is delivered with the people-centric, partnership approach that is at the heart of all our consulting services.
