Typical situations for a working capital mandate
Working capital management comes in when too much capital is tied up in receivables and open items, days sales outstanding (DSO) is too high, or liquidity needs to be freed up from current assets. With operational responsibility, not outside consulting.

Typical triggers: a tight liquidity situation, excessive outstanding receivables, a weak dunning process, or a lack of transparency over receivables and payment terms.

Also in a group context: working capital steering with nine-figure turnover and complex receivables structures.

Analysis of tied-up capital in current assets and identification of liquidity potential.
Reduction of days sales outstanding (DSO) through consistent receivables management and dunning.

Transparent reporting on receivables, outstanding items and liquidity as a basis for decisions.
