Developing financial models 

At Dimarx, we provide the tools and insights needed to make strong, informed decisions. Our team delivers comprehensive project budgets, detailed financial reports, bridging documents, and custom reports tailored to your specific needs. With our expertise, you’ll have the critical information necessary to guide your business decisions confidently and effectively.

Reviewing your current or previous plans

To ensure your business stays on course and achieves its strategic objectives, regular monitoring of your strategic plans is essential. At Dimarx, we offer monthly or quarterly reviews to assess your progress, ensuring that your business remains aligned with its goals.

During these reviews, we evaluate performance metrics and market conditions, allowing us to make any necessary adjustments to your strategy. If certain targets are not being met, we provide options to catch up and realign efforts, keeping your business agile and responsive to changes. With our continuous oversight, you can confidently adapt to challenges and stay on track for success.

Regular Monitoring

In today’s fast-paced business environment, staying static can hinder progress. At Dimarx, we specialise in reviewing and updating your current strategic plans to ensure they remain relevant and effective. Our process identifies gaps, confirms the validity of your existing strategies, and updates key areas to reflect changes in your industry and business landscape.

With regular monitoring, the business can adapt as the environment changes, this can include opportunities or disruptors to your markets.

A review every 3 months is recommended, to ensure you still have time to react before the end of the financial year.  Q1, Q2, Q3 

Ownership of the plan

When a team is actively involved in the planning process, they gain a true sense of ownership over the plan’s outcomes. Engaging team members early in the development of a strategic plan fosters commitment, accountability, and motivation to see the plan succeed.

At Dimarx, we believe that collaboration leads to stronger, more effective execution. By involving your team in the process, we ensure that everyone is aligned with the goals and fully invested in bringing the vision to life. This sense of ownership empowers the team to take initiative and work together to achieve shared objectives.

Robust discussions that result in a shared vision

Successful businesses are built on a shared vision, but getting there often requires robust discussions among owners and board members. While differing perspectives can create challenges, finding common ground is key to driving the organisation forward.

At Dimarx, we help facilitate these discussions, guiding owners and board members to align on a clear and unified vision for the future. Once established, we work with you to ensure that this vision is effectively communicated to management and supported by the right resources for successful execution.

Dimarx can help you navigate this journey, ensuring all voices are heard and your business stays on track for success.

By providing in-depth analysis of financial statements, cash flow, and budgeting processes, we help organisations make informed financial decisions. Through accurate forecasting and financial modelling, we align financial strategies with business objectives, supporting long-term growth and success.

Cashflow management can be stressful

Having a strategic focus on your cashflow is essential for business success. By effectively managing and optimising your cashflow, you can ensure that resources are allocated to the right areas, enabling growth and operational efficiency.

This approach not only supports informed decision-making but also significantly reduces financial stress, allowing you to focus on scaling your business with confidence. A solid cashflow strategy is key to long-term stability and success.

Does your business know it’s real costs?

Many businesses are unaware of their true costs until they conduct a thorough financial assessment. At Dimarx Consulting, we help businesses uncover their real costs by providing in-depth analysis of manufacturing expenses, overhead recovery, transport, promotional support, direct labour, and other variable costs.

By understanding these key factors, businesses can make informed decisions, improve profitability, and optimise their operations for long-term success. Let Dimarx assist in identifying your true costs and unlocking greater financial clarity.

By creating a structured framework for daily operations, businesses can scale effectively, improve productivity, and maintain quality standards. Let Dimarx Consulting guide you in building repeatable systems that support sustainable growth.

How we do things

Regularly reviewing business processes is crucial for maintaining efficiency and improving cashflow. Streamlining workflows, eliminating bottlenecks, and automating tasks can reduce operational costs and improve productivity. By identifying areas for improvement, businesses can optimise resource use, leading to lower expenses and improved cashflow.

At Dimarx Consulting, we help businesses conduct thorough process reviews to ensure they operate efficiently, allowing them to save money, improve cashflow, and drive long-term success.

New Markets / New Products

Expanding sales is essential for business growth, and there are several strategies to achieve this. Entering new markets and introducing new products can significantly increase revenue streams and customer reach.

Effective advertising and promotions also play a key role in attracting new customers and boosting sales. By combining market expansion, product development, and targeted marketing efforts, businesses can achieve sustainable growth.

At Dimarx Consulting, we specialise in helping businesses develop comprehensive sales strategies, including exploring new markets, launching new products, and crafting effective advertising and promotional campaigns to drive revenue.

Supply agreements that work for your organisation

In my experience, making supply agreements work effectively for your organisation is key to optimising cashflow and maintaining efficiency. By negotiating terms such as consignment stock, holding inventory, and reducing lead times, you can ensure a smoother supply chain that meets your needs without overburdening your resources.

Just-in-time (JIT) inventory management is another powerful strategy that helps reduce excess stock while keeping operations running seamlessly. Securing extended payment terms with suppliers can also give your organisation more flexibility with cashflow. I’ve seen how these strategies can create win-win agreements that support long-term success.

Are you financing your customers?

Allowing customers to go outside of payment terms can strain your business’s cashflow and disrupt operations. However, by proactively renegotiating payment terms, you can find solutions that benefit both parties.

Offering flexible terms, such as early payment discounts or staggered payment options, encourages timely payments while maintaining positive customer relationships. Renegotiating terms can also help stabilise cashflow by aligning payment schedules with your business needs.

At Dimarx Consulting, we help businesses find the right balance between customer satisfaction and cashflow optimisation, ensuring financial stability while fostering strong client partnerships.

Is stock a major issue in your business?

In my experience, managing inventory effectively can have a significant impact on cashflow. By implementing Just-in-Time (JIT) inventory management, you can minimise excess stock, freeing up cash that would otherwise be tied up in inventory.

Additionally, leveraging buying power by purchasing in bulk allows you to reduce the cost of goods sold (COGS), Sea-freight, instead of Airfreight… 

These strategies not only reduce expenses but also improve cashflow, ensuring your business has the resources it needs to grow. Managing inventory efficiently is key to optimising cashflow and maintaining a lean, cost-effective operation.

Know when cash is required

Planning your cashflow effectively is key to unlocking new opportunities for your business. When you have a clear strategy in place for managing cashflow, you can confidently invest in growth areas like marketing, inventory, or expansion. Proper cashflow planning helps you avoid financial shortfalls, handle unexpected expenses, and take advantage of opportunities as they arise. 

We work with your business to develop customised cashflow strategies that ensure stability and allows you to pursue new opportunities that drive success and long-term growth.

Adjusting your goals is crucial

Adjusting your business goals to reflect current market conditions is essential for maintaining relevance and competitiveness. As markets evolve, factors like customer preferences, economic trends, and technological advancements can impact your original objectives.

By regularly reassessing and adapting your goals, you can align your strategy with the realities of the market, allowing for more agile decision-making and the ability to seize new opportunities. This flexibility not only helps your business stay on track but also ensures long-term growth and sustainability in a dynamic environment.

Where do you make your money?

Diversifying your holdings and balancing infrastructure assets (capital) with operational profit is essential for optimising your business’s financial health.

Many businesses make their money through a combination of capital investments in infrastructure, such as owning their premises, and the profitability of day-to-day operations. Striking the right balance between these two can unlock working capital and improve cashflow management.

For businesses that own their premises, leveraging those assets can free up funds for reinvestment in growth opportunities. At Dimarx Consulting, we specialise in helping businesses achieve this balance, ensuring a stable cashflow while maximising both capital assets and operational profits.

Having the right staff

Having the right staff in place is essential for driving business efficiency, maximising procurement, and making strong, informed decisions. Skilled employees can streamline processes, reduce waste, and optimise operations, leading to increased productivity and cost savings. Additionally, experienced staff members play a key role in procurement, ensuring the best value for goods and services while negotiating favourable terms.

At Dimarx Consulting, we understand the importance of building a strong team, and we help businesses develop the right strategies to attract, retain, and empower the talent needed to achieve operational excellence and long-term success.

Establishing a project budget

Establishing a project budget is crucial for keeping any project on track and within financial constraints. A well-planned budget outlines the costs associated with each project phase, helping allocate resources effectively and setting clear expectations for stakeholders. Beyond initial setup, ongoing monitoring is essential to ensure that actual spending aligns with projections, allowing for quick adjustments if costs begin to escalate.

Dimarx Consultants can support you through every step of this process—from developing an accurate budget that considers all project variables to providing ongoing oversight. Our team brings expertise in tracking and reporting, ensuring transparency and mitigating risks before they impact project timelines or finances. By partnering with Dimarx, you gain the confidence of knowing your project is backed by proactive management, ensuring its success and safeguarding your investment.

Forecast / Review / Forecast / Review …

Business forecasting outside of standard budget periods is a vital practice for adapting to market changes and seizing new opportunities. This approach involves regularly projecting financial performance, market trends, and operational demands beyond the typical budgeting cycle, offering a more agile view of the business’s trajectory. 

Ultimately, maintaining this forward-looking approach outside of budget cycles helps keep the organisation responsive, competitive, and well-positioned to adapt in a dynamic environment.

Cashflow is critical in any business

Budgeting cash flow is essential for maintaining financial stability and achieving both short- and long-term goals. Dimarx Consultants can guide you through the process of tracking income and expenses, projecting future cash inflows and outflows, and identifying potential financial gaps or surplus.

Our team offers tailored insights to anticipate tight financial periods, helping you proactively manage expenses or reinvest profits when cash flow is strong. By working with Dimarx, you’ll have the expertise to prioritise spending, avoid unnecessary debt, and create a safety net for unexpected challenges. For businesses, our cash flow budgeting services align with strategic objectives, ensuring resilience and adaptability in a fluctuating market.

Does your business know it’s real costs?

Many businesses are unaware of their true costs until they conduct a thorough financial assessment. At Dimarx Consulting, we help businesses uncover their real costs by providing in-depth analysis of manufacturing expenses, overhead recovery, transport, promotional support, direct labour, and other variable costs.

By understanding these key factors, businesses can make informed decisions, improve profitability, and optimise their operations for long-term success. Let Dimarx assist in identifying your true costs and unlocking greater financial clarity.

Know your Guidelines

Spending money according to the guidelines of a tender, grant, or other funding agreement is crucial to maintaining compliance, trust, and future funding opportunities. Funding bodies and grant providers allocate resources with specific purposes and outcomes in mind, expecting recipients to use the funds as outlined in the agreement.

Adhering to these guidelines ensures transparency, demonstrates accountability, and reflects respect for the funder’s objectives. Misallocation or unapproved spending can lead to audits, penalties, or even a requirement to repay the funds, which can harm both the organisation’s reputation and financial stability. By following the spending guidelines, organisations not only protect their current funding but also enhance their credibility, showing that they are reliable stewards of resources—an important factor for securing future grants, tenders, or funding.

Aquittal Process

Dimarx conducts a formal review required at the end of a funding period to ensure that funds were spent in accordance with the agreement’s terms. This process involves preparing a detailed report that documents all expenses and verifies that the funding was used solely for the specified project or program purposes.

Typically, it includes submitting financial statements, receipts, and a summary of outcomes achieved, allowing the funding body to assess both financial compliance and the impact of their support.

The financial acquittal process serves as a critical accountability measure, demonstrating transparency, responsible fund management, and alignment with the funding objectives. A successful acquittal not only satisfies the funder’s requirements but also enhances an organisation’s credibility, building trust for potential future funding opportunities.

Some grants require an Accountant signoff, our team are qualified to complete this process.

Operational Analysis

Dimarx provides a thorough operational review designed specifically for manufacturing businesses to enhance productivity and streamline processes. Our team evaluates every aspect of operations, from workflow efficiencies and resource allocation to equipment utilisation and production timelines.

We identify bottlenecks, assess process effectiveness, and pinpoint areas where improvements can be made to reduce downtime and minimise waste. By conducting a detailed analysis, Dimarx offers actionable insights and tailored recommendations that help optimise operations, improve product quality, and increase overall efficiency. This operational review not only supports cost savings but also ensures your business is well-positioned for growth and resilience in a competitive industry.

What’s next in your landscape?

Exploring new ideas and concepts in manufacturing is essential for driving innovation, staying competitive, and meeting evolving market demands. Adopting novel approaches—such as automation, advanced materials, or sustainable practices—can lead to significant benefits, including improved efficiency, reduced production costs, higher product quality, and the ability to meet customer expectations more effectively. Introducing fresh ideas also helps manufacturers adapt to industry changes, positioning them as leaders rather than followers.

However, the pursuit of innovation is not without its challenges. New technologies or processes often require substantial upfront investment, which can be a financial risk if the anticipated benefits aren’t realised. Additionally, implementing new systems may disrupt established workflows, require employee retraining, or even reveal unforeseen compatibility issues with existing infrastructure. For these reasons, a careful assessment of potential pitfalls, including cost-benefit analysis and pilot testing, is essential when considering new concepts.

A strategic approach to innovation can allow manufacturers to reap the rewards of new ideas while mitigating risks and ensuring sustainable growth.

Plan out your market approach

Exploring new markets and developing new products are powerful strategies for growth, allowing businesses to diversify their revenue streams, reduce dependency on existing markets, and capture emerging customer segments. Expanding into new markets opens up opportunities to reach different demographics, tap into unmet needs, and increase brand recognition on a larger scale.

Similarly, developing new products enables companies to respond to shifting consumer demands, stay competitive, and leverage technological advancements. However, these initiatives require a strategic approach, including thorough market research, competitor analysis, and product testing, to ensure alignment with company goals and customer expectations.

While venturing into uncharted territory involves risks—such as financial investment and potential resource reallocation—the benefits of expanding the business’s reach and adaptability can be substantial, setting a strong foundation for long-term success and resilience in a dynamic business environment.

Lets’ Grow your business.

Preparing a manufacturing business for growth requires a focused approach that aligns resources, optimises processes, and sets clear, achievable goals. Dimarx can help you achieve this growth mindset by creating a strategic plan tailored to your unique business needs and aspirations.

Our customised approach begins with an in-depth analysis of your current operations, identifying strengths and areas for improvement. We work with you to define key growth objectives—whether it’s increasing production capacity, expanding into new markets, or innovating your product offerings.

Dimarx then develops a step-by-step roadmap that addresses critical areas such as operational efficiency, workforce development, and market positioning, ensuring that every aspect of your business is primed for scale. With ongoing support and strategic insights, Dimarx empowers your business to embrace a growth-focused approach that’s sustainable and strategically sound, setting you up for lasting success in a competitive industry.

Knowing your risk and mitigate

Understanding your business risks and proactively mitigating them is essential to avoid potential disasters; solutions could include implementing robust data security measures, developing comprehensive continuity plans, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards, and conducting regular risk assessments to stay ahead of emerging threats.  

Have you thought about business interruption insurance?

Here are some common business continuity testing scenarios that organisations use to ensure resilience and readiness:

1. Power Outage Simulation: Test the ability to maintain operations and communication during a prolonged loss of power.
2. Natural Disaster Simulation: Plan responses to events like floods, earthquakes, or bushfires, focusing on evacuation, remote work capabilities, and data backup accessibility.
3. Cyber-Attack Response: Simulate a cyber breach, such as ransomware or data theft, to test incident response, containment measures, and data recovery procedures.
4. Data Recovery Test: Validate that critical data can be recovered accurately and within a specified timeframe after a data loss or corruption incident.
5. Supply Chain Disruption: Assess response to a supply chain interruption by testing alternative supplier arrangements and stockpile management.
6. Key Person Loss: Simulate the sudden unavailability of key personnel to evaluate knowledge transfer, succession plans, and role coverage capabilities.
7. Pandemic or Widespread Illness: Test operational flexibility by planning for high absenteeism and testing remote work readiness and communication strategies.
8. System Failure Scenario: Simulate a critical system failure, such as ERP or CRM downtime, and assess how quickly essential business processes can resume.
9. Evacuation Drill: Conduct an evacuation of the office or worksite to practice emergency protocols, ensuring all employees understand exit routes and meeting points.
10. Reputation Crisis Simulation: Role-play a public relations or social media crisis to test communication strategies, rapid response plans, and stakeholder engagement.
11. Product Recall or Quality Issue: Simulate a scenario where a product defect is discovered to test recall procedures, customer communication, and damage control.

Each test helps identify gaps and improve response capabilities, ensuring the business can manage unexpected disruptions effectively.

Know how it is going to impact

A business impact analysis (BIA) predicts the consequences of a disruption to your business, and gathers information needed to develop recovery strategies. Potential loss scenarios should be identified during a risk assessment.

Knowing what you need

Knowing what skills your business needs and identifying strategies to attract this talent is crucial for building a top-performing team that drives growth and innovation.

Dimarx can assist by analysing your current workforce, pinpointing skill gaps, and crafting targeted recruitment strategies to attract top talent that aligns with your organisational goals and values.

Know your people

Understanding your people and their skills is essential in business, as you may have untapped talent already within your team; Dimarx can assist by conducting skills assessments and talent audits to uncover these hidden strengths, helping you better utilise your workforce and drive organisational success.

Recruiting the right people

Recruiting the right people goes beyond simply matching skills to job requirements; it’s about finding individuals who align with the organisation’s culture, values, and vision. The ideal candidate should not only be technically competent but should also fit seamlessly into the team, contributing positively to the work environment and sharing a commitment to the organisation’s goals.

A strong organisational fit fosters collaboration, enhances job satisfaction, and increases retention, as employees who feel aligned with their workplace are more likely to stay motivated and engaged. By prioritising both skills and cultural alignment, organisations can build resilient teams that drive long-term success.

Driving a culture of success

Driving a culture of success within both your management and broader teams, while maintaining a personal approach, is key to building a thriving, resilient business. When leaders cultivate an environment that values individual contributions, celebrates achievements, and encourages a sense of shared purpose, employees feel motivated and take pride in their roles. This positive atmosphere doesn’t just stay within company walls; it extends outward, shaping how staff interact with clients, partners, and the wider community.

Employees who feel genuinely valued are more likely to champion the organisation in their daily interactions, subtly promoting the business to others they meet. This natural advocacy reinforces the organisation’s reputation, drawing in new clients and establishing trust with the community. Ultimately, a well-supported, engaged team becomes your best ambassador, consistently driving both internal success and external growth.

Succession Planning & Key Person Replacement

Dimarx understands the critical impact that losing a key person can have on your business operations and is here to help you prepare with a structured succession plan. Our team works closely with you to develop individualised plans that address both short-term and long-term solutions, ensuring that your business remains resilient through any transition.

Maintenance Planning

Maintenance planning is essential for keeping facilities and equipment at peak performance, minimising the risk of unexpected downtime, and ensuring smooth, uninterrupted operations that save time and reduce costly repairs.

Dimarx Consultants can support this process by developing a customised maintenance plan that addresses your organisation’s unique needs, schedules preventive checks, and implements efficient workflows to ensure long-term reliability and operational excellence.
