Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A)
At Fast Forward Partners, our FP&A services cover the full spectrum: from planning and budgeting to reporting, variance analysis, and performance evaluation. We can seamlessly integrate into your team to fill critical roles or provide high-level guidance across FP&A functions. Backed by deep industry expertise, our approach goes far beyond financial modeling by collaborating closely with cross-functional teams to deliver actionable business insights. As true partners to non-finance leaders, we help organizations connect financial outcomes to strategic and operational priorities, enabling smarter, data-driven decisions.
Strategic Finance
Fast Forward Partners delivers finance leadership and strategic partnership for both short-term projects and long-term growth initiatives. Whether embedded within your organization or collaborating closely with executive teams, we go beyond financial analysis to actively shape and execute business strategy. Our deep industry experience ensures that every initiative is grounded in financial rigor and aligned with the broader vision, bridging the gap between strategic ambition and operational reality.
Pricing Strategy
Fast Forward Partners has the skill set to develop pricing strategies for new products (or services), transform the pricing for existing products, and rethink pricing based on changing strategic needs. Pricing is closely tied to a company’s business model; therefore, Fast Forward Partners' clients greatly benefit from our business acumen and industry knowledge. As we craft new pricing, we work with the leadership team to create the overall strategy around the product.
Growth Strategy
Our members possess extensive experience in growing technology companies. Developing a growth strategy is an involved process that requires an understanding of scalable opportunities across various sectors. In addition to identifying these opportunities, formulating a strategy to capture them in a financially sound manner is part of the art and science of Fast Forward Partners’ craft. Our ability to communicate effectively with executive teams is key to fostering collaboration on growth strategy development and differentiates us as an advisory firm.
Deal Structuring
Large-scale collaborations and business development deals can present many financial pitfalls. Our practical knowledge of partnership contracts, combined with experience in implementing terms, provides the right expertise to collaborate with business units in creating financially sound deal structures that avoid pitfalls. Our operational experience allows us to evaluate the practical implications and financial outcomes of deal terms. We are skilled in articulating the business impact of deal terms as a result of our financial assessment.
Technology Infrastructure Finance
Our extensive experience in the technology industry enables us to assess and optimize the cost of a company’s technology infrastructure. Scaling technology companies requires precise timing regarding the scale of development efforts while establishing cost-effective maintenance structures. Our significant experience working with engineers and engineering leadership positions us as a premier partner for collaborating on scaling a company’s technology operations. In addition to scaling operations, we can collaborate closely with the engineering team to optimize the costs of engineering operations. We also work with engineering and product leadership to evaluate the viability of new products by modeling the investment requirements and potential returns.
