Second opinions
An independent read on a model before you rely on it for a decision, a bid or an investment.
United Kingdom · London · Excel consulting
A large share of our London consulting work is EUC remediation — a spreadsheet flagged in an internal audit or risk review that now needs to be defensible. It is unglamorous, produces no impressive output, and is usually the thing that most needs doing.

A typical job here
Budget 8–16 hours as a starting point. If what you send turns out larger, you hear about it during scoping rather than at the end.

Why London specifically
Clients for this are typically in the City, Canary Wharf, Shoreditch and the Thames Valley corridor, across financial services and fintech, insurance and Lloyd's market firms, professional services, property investment, and the UK arms of international groups. FCA-adjacent reporting, group consolidations and models built for a reviewer.
For the wider picture of what we see in this market — the recurring problems, the source systems, how the time difference plays out — the London guide covers it properly rather than repeating it on every service page.
8–16 hours is typical here. You get a number in writing before we start.

Excel experts in LondonScope
Two of the things this covers most often for London clients. The excel consulting page sets out the full scope and method.
An independent read on a model before you rely on it for a decision, a bid or an investment.
Restructuring so assumptions live in one place, calculations are traceable, and a reviewer can verify the output unaided.
Not everything needs fixing. We rank findings by what could actually cause a wrong decision.
Every external link, every constant embedded in a formula, every manual step in the update procedure.

Questions
Answers for this service in this market, including the ones that might cost us the job.
Ask us something elseWe work from the specific finding and produce documentation evidencing what changed. Whether that closes it is your auditor's judgement, not ours — anyone promising otherwise has not met your auditor.
A single-workbook audit is usually 4–8 hours at our standard hourly rate, delivered as a prioritised findings list plus a recorded walkthrough. You can act on it yourself or have us do the remediation — there is no obligation to continue.
Offshore — our team works from India and there is no London office. We say that upfront because for financial services work, being straight about who is touching your data matters more than appearing local. The time overlap is good, and our rates are a fraction of a London consultancy's.
