REPORTING & ANALYTICS / LINCOLNSHIRE
WHAT IS INCLUDED
WHY GRANTHAM
A common Grantham scenario: the managing director asks how last week went and gets three different answers from sales, operations and finance, each from its own spreadsheet. We fix that by connecting the underlying systems, such as accounts, orders, production or warehouse and time and attendance, into one reporting layer with agreed definitions. The result is a single set of figures that everyone uses, refreshed automatically, with the detail behind every number available when someone asks why it moved.
REPORTING & ANALYTICS / GRANTHAM
Beyond headline figures, we focus on the measures that drive decisions in each business. A distributor might track cost per delivery, on-time performance and vehicle utilisation by customer. A food producer might watch yield, waste and labour hours per tonne. An engineering firm might compare quoted and actual hours by job type. A service business might watch bookings, cancellations and revenue per staff member. Each dashboard is short, specific and designed to be checked daily.
IN PRACTICE / GRANTHAM
A Grantham manufacturer could replace separate sales, operations and finance spreadsheets with one automated weekly pack, built on agreed definitions, so management meetings discuss actions rather than argue about whose numbers are right.
A food producer might track yield, giveaway and waste by product and shift, highlighting where small improvements on high-volume lines would make the biggest difference to margin over a year.
A distributor could combine delivery volumes, drop times, mileage and pricing to show profit by customer, informing rate reviews with clear evidence rather than instinct or anecdote. Loss-making accounts become obvious quickly.

QUESTION / GRANTHAM
Yes, as a starting point. Many firms hold important data in spreadsheets, and we can connect them into reporting, ideally after tidying their structure. Over time, we usually recommend moving critical data into proper systems, because spreadsheets are easy to break. We plan that transition gradually so reporting keeps working throughout.
