Cash Flow Problems

Software and IT services companies face huge cash flow challenges

Upfront costs are huge

Software and IT services demand huge investments – high-end contractors and technologies to build solutions.

Projects are complex

Countless moving parts. From high salaries and staff turnover – to aggressive competition and client-defined scopes.

Hypergrowth can happen

Every software and IT services company wants it. But the reality is tough to manage. Most fail due to cash flow issues.

Get proactive warnings ahead of any cash flow issue – like technology costs or unpaid invoices that could push your firm into its safety net.
