FAQs

Is Asher & Company just another boutique with nice slides?

We build models, not slides: the cost, profitability and planning logic inside your EPM platform, designed so your team runs it after we leave.

Who actually does the work?

Senior principals. The person who scopes your model is the person who designs it.

Do you have real experience?

Over 30 years and more than 200 integrated EPM models, built by our principals across banking, insurance, healthcare, consumer goods and the public sector in the US, Latin America and Europe. Client references are available under NDA.

Isn’t Oracle EPM too complex for my team?

That’s why we teach while we build. A first model is typically designed in 2–4 weeks and built in 4–12, with your team doing the work alongside us.

What if I already have Excel and an ERP?

Keep both. Allocation logic moves out of spreadsheets and into the EPM model, where it’s traceable and versioned. Your ERP stays the source of the numbers.

This sounds like an expensive project.

Every engagement starts with a conversation with a principal and a scoped diagnostic with fixed deliverables, so you see the model’s design before you commit to the build.

What if Oracle changes the rules?

Oracle is shipping new profitability features to EPCM, not to legacy PCM. We design for EPCM and plan PCM migrations so you don’t rebuild twice.

Does Asher know my industry?

Banking and healthcare are our core. We also work in manufacturing and logistics where cost-to-serve drives the decision.

Do you use AI?

Yes. StrategicFinance.ai™ agents, built on Claude, operate the models we design. The logic stays in your EPM model; the agent runs it.
