What is FP&A Consulting?

FP&A Consulting appears to serve companies that need specific FP&A projects completed—budget models, forecasting systems, financial analysis for fundraises or strategic decisions—without requiring ongoing accounting or controller work. This makes them a fit for companies that already have accounting/bookkeeping in place but need FP&A expertise for particular initiatives.

The ideal customer is a company that has basic accounting handled (in-house or via a bookkeeper) but lacks FP&A capabilities. They need a specialist to build out financial models, establish forecasting processes, or prepare detailed analysis for board meetings, investor presentations, or strategic planning sessions.

Companies that need ongoing accounting, month-end close support, or a continuous CFO relationship should look elsewhere. FP&A Consulting appears to be project-focused rather than a full-service finance partner.

FP&A (Financial Planning & Analysis): Core service focus—building financial models, budget plans, and forecasting systems.

Budget Modeling: Creating detailed budget frameworks to support planning and resource allocation.

Financial Forecasting: Forward-looking financial projections to support strategic decision-making.

Project-Based Consulting: Discrete engagements scoped to specific FP&A deliverables rather than ongoing retainers.

Based on their project-focused model, they likely do not offer ongoing bookkeeping, month-end close, or continuous controller services. Companies needing those would need to pair them with a separate accounting provider.

Public pricing information for FP&A Consulting was not found across multiple domain attempts. Given their project-based model, they likely price engagements either as fixed project fees or hourly consulting rates. Companies should expect to discuss scope directly to receive a proposal.

The lack of public pricing requires a discovery conversation to understand cost. This is friction for companies that want to self-assess fit before engaging.

Project-based pricing can be advantageous because you know the cost upfront for a defined deliverable. However, it means you're engaging for discrete work rather than having an ongoing finance partner.

FP&A specialization: By focusing exclusively on financial planning and analysis, they bring depth in this area rather than spreading across accounting, tax, and CFO work. Companies needing FP&A expertise specifically may benefit.

Project-based flexibility: You engage for specific deliverables rather than committing to ongoing retainers. This can be cost-effective for companies with episodic FP&A needs.

Scoped engagements: Project-based work means clear scope and deliverables, reducing ambiguity about what you're getting for your investment.

Specialized expertise access: For companies that need FP&A work but can't justify a full-time FP&A hire, this provides access to specialized skills on a limited basis.

No ongoing accounting or controller work: This is the core limitation. FP&A Consulting appears to focus on project work, not continuous finance support. Companies needing month-end close, ongoing bookkeeping, or a steady CFO relationship will need a different provider.

Requires a separate accounting provider: If you engage FP&A Consulting for FP&A projects, you'll still need someone handling your day-to-day accounting. This adds vendor complexity.

Limited transparency on credentials: Without verified website or company details, it's difficult to assess team experience, client references, or track record.

No continuity between projects: Project-based work means each engagement starts fresh. There's no accumulated institutional knowledge about your business from prior work.

Not a full-service finance partner: You can't build a complete finance function with FP&A Consulting alone—you're getting a specific service, not an integrated finance solution.

Project work vs. ongoing partnership: FP&A Consulting offers project-based FP&A work. Eagle Rock CFO provides the complete, ongoing finance function—accounting, controller, treasury, and CFO/FP&A—in a continuous engagement.

Scoped vs. comprehensive: FP&A Consulting is scoped to specific deliverables. Eagle Rock CFO covers everything from foundational accounting through strategic CFO guidance.

Vendor complexity: Using FP&A Consulting requires pairing with a separate accounting provider. Eagle Rock's single engagement covers the full finance function without managing multiple vendors.

Institutional knowledge: Eagle Rock builds accumulated understanding of your business over time. FP&A Consulting's project model means no continuity between engagements.

Pricing model: Both likely avoid public pricing, but FP&A Consulting's project-based model provides clearer scope for each engagement. Eagle Rock's ongoing model provides more predictable monthly cost.
