Financial Transformation & FP&A Consulting for European Businesses.

Most European finance teams spend more time closing last month than planning next quarter. We change that — replacing spreadsheet-based finance with driver-based models, automation, and behavioral discipline built to last.

We work across
Manufacturing · SaaS · Financial Services · Pharma · Aviation · Professional Services

We engineer
financial clarity.

Most finance transformations fail because they treat the symptom — the spreadsheet, the ERP, the dashboard — without changing the underlying decision architecture. We fix both.

We are not a staffing agency. We are not a Big Four offshoot. We are a focused team of finance operators, behavioral scientists, and engineers who have built, automated, and scaled financial systems for companies across Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands, and the broader European market.

01

Behavioral Finance Implementation

We identify where cognitive bias distorts your financial decisions and redesign the architecture to eliminate it — embedded into your processes, not bolted on.

02

FP&A (Financial Planning & Analysis)

We replace static annual budgets with driver-based rolling forecasts your board can act on — real-time KPI visibility, variance analysis, and close cycles cut from weeks to days.

03

Custom Financial Ecosystem

We architect bespoke ERP integrations, automation pipelines, and custom financial tools built precisely around your operating model — no generic platforms, no compromises.

Most finance functions
are built to report.
Not to decide.

01

"We'll have the numbers ready by the 15th."

Your CFO is always looking backward. By the time the close finishes, the decision window has already closed with it.

02

"The forecast is last year's budget plus 10%."

Your plan is an anchor, not a model. Politically negotiated, disconnected from the drivers that actually move your business.

03

"Can you pull that from the ERP? It'll take a few days."

Your finance team spends 70% of their time consolidating data — and 30% analyzing it. That ratio needs to be reversed.

PMG Services fixes the architecture — at the process layer, the data layer, and the decision layer.

Behavioral Finance Implementation

Most financial decisions are undermined by cognitive bias before any data reaches the table. We audit your decision architecture, design behavioral nudge frameworks, and embed behavioral governance across your planning and reporting cycles.

Not sure where to start?
We have a fixed answer.

FAQ

What is FP&A consulting?

FP&A (Financial Planning & Analysis) consulting is the process of redesigning a company's financial planning, forecasting, and reporting function. A specialist FP&A consultant helps businesses replace static annual budgets with driver-based rolling forecasts, build real-time KPI dashboards, automate month-end close processes, and create the analytical infrastructure that enables faster, more confident financial decisions.

What does behavioral finance consulting involve?

Behavioral finance consulting applies insights from cognitive psychology to identify and correct systematic biases in financial decision-making. This includes conducting a Decision Bias Audit to map where anchoring, overconfidence, and loss aversion distort planning and forecasting — then designing structural nudges and governance protocols that embed better decision habits permanently into your processes.

Which European countries does PMG Services operate in?

We work with companies primarily across Germany, Austria, Switzerland (DACH), the Netherlands, and the broader European market. We deliver engagements in both English and German, and are experienced with the regulatory and reporting environments across major European jurisdictions.

What size companies do you work with?

Our engagements are best suited for mid-market companies — typically €30M to €500M in annual revenue — that have outgrown spreadsheet-based finance but have not yet deployed a full enterprise FP&A platform. We also work alongside larger organizations on specific integration or automation workstreams where a focused specialist team delivers better results than a large generalist practice.

How long does a financial transformation project take?

It depends on scope. Our 90-Day FP&A Diagnostic Sprint is a fixed-scope, 13-week engagement delivering a working forecast model and transformation roadmap. Full finance function transformations — covering FP&A, behavioral governance, and ERP integration — typically run 6 to 18 months depending on the complexity of the technology stack and the degree of organizational change required.

What ERP systems do you integrate with?

We work across the major ERP platforms used by European mid-market and enterprise companies, including SAP (ECC and S/4HANA), Oracle, NetSuite, and Microsoft Dynamics. Our integration work connects these systems to BI platforms such as Power BI and Snowflake to create a unified, automated financial data layer with no manual extraction steps.

How is PMG Services different from a Big Four firm?

We are a focused specialist team, not a generalist firm. That means faster mobilization, direct senior involvement throughout the engagement, and a narrower remit — we do not cross-sell strategy, HR transformation, or IT projects alongside the finance work. Our model is built for mid-market companies that want senior-level expertise without the overhead, timelines, and coordination costs of a large consulting house.

Do you offer fixed-price engagements?

Yes. Our 90-Day FP&A Diagnostic Sprint is a fixed-scope, fixed-deliverable engagement with a defined price agreed upfront — no scope creep, no open-ended billing. Larger transformation projects are scoped and priced on a project basis after an initial discovery phase. Contact us to discuss the right structure for your situation.
