Four domains. Five stages. One model your team owns.
We design the cost, profitability and planning models behind the decisions finance has to defend, build them on Oracle EPM, and stay until your team runs them without us.
Four domains, each tied to a decision finance has to defend
Profitability & Costing
Which product, customer, channel or branch actually makes money?
Profitability by product, channel, customer or business unit, with cost-to-serve and capital built in, using ABC/M.
Integrated Planning
What happens to the P&L if the drivers move?
Driver-based scenarios and forecasts connected to operational reality, with native ERP integration instead of spreadsheets.
Narrative Reporting
What do we tell the board, and can we back every number?
Board-ready reports and financial commentary, consistent and governed from a single source of truth.
Enterprise Risk
Which risks threaten the plan before they hit it?
Financial KPIs connected to key risk indicators, with governance dashboards and early-warning alerts aligned with COSO ERM.
Five stages. Start at the one you need.
Not every client needs all five. Some start with a diagnostic; others bring a model that exists but nobody trusts.
Discover
Diagnostic assessment: where you are, what’s missing, what’s possible.
Learn
Learning-by-doing workshops. Your team builds the model while they learn it.
Build
Technical design and model construction: Oracle EPM architecture, cost logic, planning structures.
Deploy
Go-live, validation and adoption, with structured change management so the model lands.
Operate
Managed services: monitoring, continuous evolution and model governance.
Start small. Prove it. Then build.
Most clients don't begin with a full implementation. They begin with a question finance can't answer yet. These are the three steps we usually take with them.
PCM Benchmark
How does your cost and profitability model compare?
We assess your current model against reference practice and hand you a prioritized list of gaps in drivers, granularity, governance and data.
Decision Sizing Workshop
Which decisions should the model answer first?
One working session with your finance and operations leads. Together we define the three to five decisions, the drivers behind them and the scope of the build.
Rapid Deployment on Oracle EPCM
A working model your team runs.
We start from a working model and adapt it to your business and your industry.
- Profitability & Value Analytics. Customer, product and channel margins with cost-to-serve and capital.
- Strategic Cost Management. Activity-based costs, including IT and shared-services chargeback.
- Pricing & Revenue Optimization. Price floors and deal margins built on the same model.
Each step stands on its own, and you keep what it produces. Write to us at info@asher.company

PCM Maturity Assessment
How mature is your cost and profitability model, from the data to the decisions it supports?
Start the assessment →Planning Maturity Assessment
Is your plan driver-based, rolling and used to decide, or an annual budget exercise?
Start the assessment →ESG Maturity Assessment
Do you know the emissions and sustainability cost behind each product and customer?
Start the assessment →We start where the number gets questioned
Customer, product and branch profitability with funds transfer pricing, expected loss and capital charge.
Cost of care by service line and medical unit, so funding decisions rest on what care actually costs.
Platforms we build on.
Oracle EPM for the cost, profitability and planning models. Anthropic, for the StrategicFinance.ai™ agents that operate them.
