Building a bridge between the Netherlands and Turkey – how? 

Doing business across national borders has its challenges, especially if the rules in these countries differ. Are these challenges financially, then you will probably immediately think of having correct figures. However: to find solutions, more is needed…

BridgeBey shares and multiplies knowledge about controlling and reporting. So organizations can immediately convert transparent results into strategic decision-making. We bridge differences, so they can realize ambitions.

Feel free to ask

With more than 20 years of experience, BridgeBey has successfully tackled a wide range of issues:

Closing financial leaks
ASSIGNMENT
Situation:
a listed producer had been selling in Turkey for years, but did not trust the results
Request: perform
an audit to provide insight into possible causes and areas for improvement for closing operational/financial leaks

Result:
a 5-day audit revealed 3 pain points that could be structurally solved immediately by setting up and implementing accounting rules, among other things
Improve profitability
ASSIGNMENT
Situation:
a Turkish production facility had been loss-making for quite some time; urgent help was needed to realize a turn-around
Request:
in addition to a financial control, also carry out a business control and map out change management needs, as input for a strategic plan

Result:
after a thorough 2-month analysis we carried out a 7-month change program that resulted in black figures within 1 year
Professionalize financial reporting
ASSIGNMENT
Situation:
the reporting of a fertilizing company left much to be desired in both quality and speed
Request:
provide reliable insight into the financial position to enable informed strategic decision-making

Result:
by completely redesigning all reporting, management’s confidence in figures was reestablished, resulting in profit-boosting decision-making after one quarter already
Realizing a financial knowledge impulse
ASSIGNMENT
Situation:
an agricultural company’s controlling team had no knowledge of the Turkish guidelines and thereby missed the proverbial boat
Request: provide a knowledge injection to make the existing team self-managing in their high-quality task performance
Result: by implementing our coaching program – with elements like knowledge transfer, 1-on-1 coaching and trainings – the 3 controllers are now operating independently
Harmonizing financial processes

ASSIGNMENT
Situation: a purchasing and sales organization lacked unity in reporting, unenabling them to prepare financial statements
Request
