How I work

Proof before commitment.

Something tangible first. Only then a decision.

A good solution starts with the real financial process. For projects that fit my expertise, I first build a small, free prototype around the core problem. You see my approach before deciding: continue, refine or stop.

From first conversation to working system.

Each step makes the next decision concrete. I only continue when it is clear to both you and me that moving forward makes sense.

A short initial assessment

Plan an introductory meeting

I first assess whether your question fits my expertise. If it does, we plan a 30–60 minute conversation about the problem, desired outcome, current process, systems and constraints.

  2. After the first conversation

    Does the collaboration fit?

    If you want to continue after the conversation, I assess the project again with the full context. I consider whether it matches my financial and technical expertise and interests, and whether I can deliver a fitting solution within your budget and technical constraints. My approach is robust and precise, but also pragmatic. That way of working needs to suit you too.

  3. Usually 2–5 working days

    Validation Sprint

    For projects that fit, I build one clearly scoped prototype around the core problem. It shows how the solution could work and what it could deliver. I do not need access to your systems or data, and there is no contractual commitment beforehand. This lets you assess both the proposed direction and the way I think and deliver. It is not yet a finished product.

  4. One focused session

    Review together

    I review the prototype with you. Together, we test it against your day-to-day reality and decide what still needs to change.

  5. A substantiated proposal

    Proposal and pricing

    Only then do I prepare the proposal: outcome, scope, timeline and investment, substantiated by what the prototype has shown.

  6. Build, test, hand over

    Project execution

    I build and test the final solution, show progress along the way, and document the system for use, maintenance and any future handover.

Do you have a process that could work better?

FinanceGrip is a good fit for both small and complex financial processes that are manual, repetitive or unclear and can be set up more intelligently in digital form.

  1. A recurring finance process consumes too much manual effort.

  2. You have data, or want to start collecting it, but need clearer insight for decision-making.

  3. Spreadsheets, hand-offs or disconnected tools create uncertainty.

  4. The logic matters as much as the interface.

  5. A focused prototype can validate the direction before a larger build.

Tell me where finance loses its grip.

Describe the process, where it gets stuck and what you want to achieve. I read every request myself and contact you if the question fits my expertise.

A reply normally follows within five working days.
