Each engagement starts from the same premise: the payments channel crosses the business, but most organizations manage its individual parts without managing the whole. Where we start depends on whether something is changing or something is already breaking.
PCS helps established businesses take control of the payments channel no one owns end to end - improving visibility, accelerating cash conversion, protecting margin and enabling growth with greater control.
Two entry points, both fixed-scope, vendor-neutral and priced. Neither is a prerequisite for the other.
$4,500 CAD + HST
A visible problem inside one payment flow: reconciliation, remittance handling, cash application, fragmented information, control or ownership.
Where information, money and the accounting record separate between invoice and close, why it matters, and what should happen next.
$18,000 CAD + HST
An ERP or finance transformation, an automation or AI initiative, a new platform or provider, an acquisition or expansion, or an operating-model redesign.
What the payments channel must support - defined before you commit to technology, providers or implementation decisions.
Either can be purchased directly. Neither requires the other.
$18,000 CAD + HST. Approximately three weeks. One defined business or technology initiative.
For organizations preparing for an ERP or finance transformation, automation or AI initiative, provider or platform change, acquisition, expansion or operating-model redesign.
Define what the payments channel must support before committing to technology, providers or implementation. The Sprint includes up to five stakeholder interviews and produces six executive-ready outputs: an executive decision brief, initiative-specific payments-channel map, business and operating requirements, dependency and risk register, capability-gap assessment, and prioritized 90-day roadmap with supporting business case.
A Diagnostic is not a prerequisite. The Roadmap Sprint can be purchased directly.
$6,500 a month + HST.
Delivered through a six-month advisory retainer.
Ongoing leadership for finance teams making payment decisions without a dedicated payments executive in the building. Modernization oversight, vendor selection and partner coordination - the work of asking the right questions before the contract renews, not after.
A clear view of what payments actually costs you. Not the processing rate. The hours, the exceptions, the write-offs nobody has totalled, and the close days attributable to matching.
Time back for your team. People stop doing transcription the payment should have carried, and get back to work that moves the business.
A decision you can defend. Findings in writing, the evidence underneath each one, and a boundary stated plainly around what was not examined.
