about
The client is a famous UK retail group operating across multiple regions. The company provides high end products and has a large amount of employees all using Mobile phone, Tablets and Laptops.
As the business expanded, managing their faulty and redundant devices became a headache, filling rooms with older IT equipment to the ceiling. Thus causing a data risk and an impact financiallyby leaving it to devalue.

year
challenge
Limited visibility was making planning harder
Each dealership managed many financial processes independently, creating different reporting formats and spending patterns across the organization.
Financial information was spread across multiple systems and spreadsheets, making it difficult for leadership to understand cash positions, compare performance, and anticipate future needs.
The finance team spent significant time consolidating information instead of analyzing performance and supporting strategic decisions.
solution
Creating one financial framework across the business
Alda worked with Malora's finance team to understand how money moved across the dealership network and identify where existing processes were creating unnecessary complexity.
Instead of replacing everything, Alda introduced a consistent financial framework that connected cash management, budgeting, expenses, and reporting across all locations.
Cash Flow Management
Created a consolidated view of available capital, upcoming obligations, and liquidity needs across the dealership network.
Budget Planning
Introduced consistent budgeting structures and financial targets while maintaining flexibility for individual locations.
Expense Management
Identified unnecessary spending and introduced clearer controls around recurring and discretionary expenses.
Financial Reporting
Simplified reporting processes to give leadership faster access to consistent and reliable financial information.
Results
Greater visibility. Stronger control. Better decisions.
Within the first year, Malora improved cash flow visibility by 38% and reduced unnecessary operating expenses by 24%.
Monthly reporting became faster and more consistent, while leadership gained a clearer understanding of financial performance across every dealership.
The finance team also reduced time spent consolidating information, allowing them to focus more on forecasting, planning, and strategic decision-making.

Alda helped us bring clarity to complex financial processes. We now have better visibility, stronger control, and much more confidence in every decision.
They took the time to understand how our business actually works before recommending anything. The result was a much more efficient financial operation that continues to support us as we grow.
Working with Alda completely changed how we approach budgeting and forecasting. We now have better visibility, clearer processes, and far fewer surprises at the end of each month.
What impressed us most was how practical the entire process was. Alda helped us remove unnecessary complexity and implement improvements without disrupting our day-to-day operations.
Alda feels less like an external consultant and more like an extension of our finance team. They understand our priorities, challenge our thinking, and consistently help us make better decisions.
We came to Alda looking for better control over our finances and ended up with a much stronger foundation for growth. The difference in visibility and efficiency has been significant.
Strong businesses are built on strong financial foundations. Our role is to give you the clarity, control, and confidence to make better decisions today, and build for what comes next.
