Credit Area Projects: Sometimes Companies lose money with sales not paid by their clients, in significant amounts. A score or rating project introduces analysis and credit granting techniques before allowing credits, reducing default.
Cost Reduction Projects: In this case, the project aims at determining weak points and expenses and costs that could be reduced, through work simplification, improvement of the organization structure, review of processes, etc. An early phase is the analysis of cost structure and its reasons, in order to determine what is more relevant.
Joint Venture Projects: In this case, the study has as purpose establishing a Business Plan to create and put into operation a joint venture, for example between an American and a Brazilian company that will execute a particular business undertaking. Such planning can have different parts aiming at studying strategy, market, operation, finances and so on.
Corporate Governance Projects: Corporate Governance is a procedure that has as objective dealing in a harmonic and systematized way with a Corporation, through modern control models, including budgeting. Planning techniques may be used such as "Control Tower" or "Balanced Score Card".
Control Tower Projects: This kind of project is recommended as a valuable follow-up and re-planning tool for complex projects, such as building a new factory or subway line, or even launching a new product. Those are situations requiring lots of interaction between many individuals, where coordination is fundamental.
