When should you contact
a trusted controller?

When your company is not profitable enough.
When the volume of production and/or the number of employees is increasing, but the company’s profits do not reflect this.
When you don’t have an experienced controller.
When you know that in other companies an employed controller is helping the manager to make effective decisions, but you feel you cannot afford it.
When you feel you cannot see clearly.
When you feel you have no real insight into how your company is operating and you want to know where efficiencies could be improved.

Subsequently, we develop a strategic plan containing specific solution proposals for the areas to be improved. In further consulting sessions, we offer practical assistance in implementing the planned measures and achieving the goals

Throughout the collaboration, the Control1 team quickly understood our operations and supported financial and executive decision-making through structured data processing, mobile-optimized dashboards, and in-depth KPI analyses. The project was characterized by a high level of professional expertise, flexibility, and proactive communication. We confidently recommend them for implementing complex business BI solutions.”
„From the very first meeting, two things impressed me greatly: the successful effort to understand our goals and the ethical approach. The latter was evident in the fact that the purpose of our collaboration was to automate the reporting of business unit results, with a focus on fairness and accountability among the stakeholders involved. Throughout the project, I/we received insights and guidance that clearly reflected the real-world experience at Control1. These spared us from many unnecessary detours. It was a pleasure working together—thank you!”
„Throughout our collaboration, we have experienced professional support that has not only contributed to the increased efficiency of our financial processes but has also provided accurate and reliable analyses, significantly assisting me in fulfilling my leadership responsibilities. For us, the greatest value gained from this partnership is the security it brings to our corporate governance and business development.”
„We didn’t just get analyses and charts from Control1, they worked out how to get the data, carried out the necessary analyses and provided us with evaluations with recommendations. They helped us develop a reliable and controlled cashflow and income statement for our company. Their work provided us with the kind of decision support that every business manager needs, highlighting opportunities and issues in a clear and understandable way.” Thank you for your work and support!”
„The data and information I get from Control1 gives me the kind of secure knowledge that not only allows me to sleep easier, but also to believe that we can survive in a crisis. Due to both this and the excellent relationship we have built up, we plan to work with Tamás and his team in the long term.”

Our financial and accounting data are processed at an outstanding professional level; they meet deadlines precisely, and their work is predictable and reliable. It is easy to work with them: they are goal-oriented, helpful, and provide clear and unambiguous guidance.”
„As a managing director, I don’t have time to deal with the financial administration on a monthly basis, which caused problems in the cash-flow report. That’s when Control1 came into the picture: they tracked down where the error was, organized the data and gave guidance on how to handle this process correctly in the future. The service was well worth its price!”

„Tamás not only has multinational experience, but is also knowledgeable about manufacturing, which gives him a clear insight into the workings of large corporations and how to design efficient systems. But most importantly, he translates this knowledge into the language and systems of SMEs incredibly well. Thanks to the excellent relationship we have built up and the fruitful work we have done together, we now price with much greater accuracy, which makes us more credible and confident in our business negotiations. Thank you for the opportunity to work together!”
Q&A
They interpret the data that directly and indirectly affect the success of the business, revealing relationships that are not clear to a manager, thus providing background support for making important strategic decisions. A controller makes a comprehensive interpretation of the data produced by an accountant, which is examined in conjunction with other important information (e.g. headcount, sales volumes, etc.). Armed with this knowledge, they can provide the support that will enable the business to achieve greater business results.
An accountant keeps track of the past: books the accounts and makes sure the company complies with external rules, while a controller deals with the internal workings of the business and focuses on the objectives of the management. They are primarily concerned with the future of the company: they make financial forecasts and regularly checks on the company. They warn you if your company is not on track and help you find the right management direction.
Our company has extensive experience in international controlling projects. We have worked with numerous multinational corporations across various industries, successfully assisting them in establishing and optimizing efficient controlling processes.
Through our approach based on comprehensive analysis and strategic planning, our company effectively helps clients reduce costs and increase efficiency in international operations. Through optimized processes and more efficient resource allocation, our clients gain a competitive advantage in the global market.
We offer comprehensive support in financial planning, cost analysis, development of cost reduction strategies, as well as defining and monitoring Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). Moreover, we’re specialist in industrial production costing (standard costing) and variance analysis.
Digital technologies such as data analytics, artificial intelligence, and automation are pivotal in controlling. They enable faster and more accurate analyses and facilitate the efficient tracking and forecasting of financial processes.
Yes. Control1 has the expertise not only to build something up from scratch but also to maintain that with ongoing support. Some cases our experts are selected by the clients and requested to stay as a permanent with them. This is far more efficient selection of a professional than any other way.
