Finance automation for manufacturers

See what your shop floor is really making — in real time.

I build automated dashboards and month-end reporting for medical-device and surgical manufacturers — pulling straight from your ERP, shop floor, and billing — so you see true product-line margin, cost variance, and cash without three weeks of Excel.

For manufacturers $1M–$500M in revenue · and the fractional-CFO firms who serve them

The month-end problem

Growing manufacturers hit the same wall — the data's everywhere, so the numbers come late and by hand.

Today

  • ~3 weeks after close before anyone sees real numbers
  • Margin, variance & cash rebuilt by hand in Excel
  • Data trapped in disconnected ERP / shop-floor / billing systems
  • No easy answer to "which products & customers actually make money?"

With automated reporting

  • Always-current numbers, refreshed daily
  • True product-line margin & cost variance, on demand
  • One clean model fed from all your systems
  • Plain-English insights that flag what changed and why

See it live

An interactive sample on a fictional surgical manufacturer — filter by plant or customer, drill into profitability, and watch margin & cash recompute under any scenario. (Synthetic data; the system is real.)

What you get

The reporting your team stops building by hand.

Product & customer profitability

True margin by SKU, line, and customer after overhead — ranked, with loss-leaders flagged automatically.

Margin bridge

The board-deck answer to "why did profit move?" — split into volume, mix, price, and cost.

Cost-variance & inventory

Standard-vs-actual variance traced to POs and work orders; inventory and working-capital visibility.

Scenario & cash planning

Model a cost spike, volume swing, or price change and see margin, EBITDA, and cash runway instantly.

Who I work with

Medical-device & surgical manufacturers
Founder- & PE-backed mid-market shops
Fractional-CFO & outsourced-finance firms (as their build arm)

About

I'm Jonathan Clausing — I combine hands-on manufacturing finance (FP&A, cost accounting) with software and data engineering. That mix is rare: most finance people can't build the systems, and most engineers don't understand a close or a standard-cost variance. I do both — which is why the reporting I build actually fits how a manufacturer runs.
