There are many reasons your company
might need an interim or part-time executive. Perhaps you have lost a
key person and need an experienced fill-in. Maybe you need a
knowledgeable executive to assist in establishing new operations,
divisions, or functions. Or you may need high-level advice and
assistance on an ongoing basis, but not enough to justify a full-time
position.
For example, Senior Consultant Carl Hoff served as interim President for
a northern California agribusiness cooperative, while Morrison
Consulting searched for a permanent replacement.
Brent Morrison served as Interim CFO for a $30 million
California food products company for a one-year period spanning 2005 and
2006, overseeing the company's finances and helping it reposition for a
full debt restructuring. This
highly successful restructuring enabled the company to significantly
reduce debt service outlays, eliminate onerous operating covenants, and
finance the consolidation of its ownership.
When a fast growing food processing firm needed help
transitioning from its simple bookkeeping function to more sophisticated
planning, reporting, and financial management. Morrison Consulting
filled this role and later recruited and transitioned a permanent
financial officer.
When an investment group made a $250 million purchase
of disparate units of a large wood products manufacturing and distribution
company, Brent Morrison was brought
in as Interim CFO to organize the business infrastructure – 30 days before
the close of the sale. When the purchase was final, he had established
accounting, human resources, and purchasing departments, and helped
implement a contract agreement for IT services. Business and
employee insurance plans were in place, as well as new benefit and
retirement plans. In five months, we left the new company with
an established infrastructure ready for the competitive marketplace.
We can also help with organizational restructuring;
relocations; establishing new finance, accounting, human resources, IT,
and purchasing functions, and; instituting strategic plans and
budgets. Whether you require a transitional executive, assistance
with special projects, or just a solid manager who can pick up quickly, give
us a call. You'll get an honest assessment, a
quick answer, and the help you require for your short-term needs. |
