Business Consultancy
Evidence for the decisions that are difficult to reverse.
Who it is for
For owners weighing a new venture, buyers and sellers who need an independent number, boards formalising how they handle risk, and businesses being set up, restructured or wound down.
- 01
Project Feasibility Studies
An independent assessment of whether a proposed venture works, market, cost base, funding requirement, and the returns under realistic rather than optimistic assumptions. Often the document a lender or investor asks for first, and the one worth having even when nobody asks.
- 02
Business Valuations
Defensible valuation of a business or shareholding for a sale, an entry or exit, a dispute, or a restructuring. The method is chosen to suit the purpose, and the reasoning is documented so the number can be explained rather than merely asserted.
- 03
Business Due Diligence
Examination of a target's financial position, obligations and exposures before you commit. The purpose is to establish what you are actually acquiring, including what is not on the balance sheet.
- 04
Tangible Asset Verification
Physical verification, tagging and reconciliation of fixed assets against the register. The gap between what a company owns and what its records say it owns is routinely larger than management expects.
- 05
Business Start-up and Structuring
Establishing a business in Oman: entity type, registration, the tax and regulatory obligations that follow, and setting up the accounting function properly at the outset rather than correcting it later.
- 06
Liquidation Services
Orderly winding up of a company, settling obligations, realising assets, meeting statutory requirements, and closing the entity cleanly so it does not generate liabilities after the fact.
- 07
Business Process Review & Re-engineering
Examining how work actually flows through the business, then redesigning the parts that create cost, delay or control weakness. Frequently the practical follow-on from an internal audit finding.
- 08
Risk Management
Identifying the risks that would genuinely damage the business, assessing exposure, and putting proportionate controls and monitoring in place.
Consultancy in an audit firm carries a particular discipline. The same independence and evidentiary standards that govern an audit opinion apply to a valuation, a feasibility study or a due diligence report.
That matters most when the work is contested. A number that has been derived methodically and documented properly can be defended. One that has not, cannot.
Answers
Business Consultancy questions, answered
When do we need an independent business valuation?
Whenever a number needs to survive challenge by someone with an opposing interest, a sale or purchase, a shareholder entering or exiting, a dispute, a restructuring, or a financing round. An internally prepared figure is fine for planning but rarely holds up in negotiation.
What does a feasibility study actually cover?
The market and demand for what you propose to sell, the capital and operating cost to deliver it, the funding requirement and its structure, and the projected returns tested against realistic downside assumptions. It should tell you plainly whether the venture works, including when the answer is that it does not.
Can you help us set up a company in Oman?
Yes. We advise on entity type and structure, handle registration, set out the tax and regulatory obligations that follow, and establish the accounting function so the business starts compliant rather than being corrected later.
