A Full Finance Department for HardTech Companies

HardTech is hard for a reason, and that's exactly why we specialize in it.

THE REALITY

Raising capital is hard. Deploying it with discipline is even harder.

In capital‑intensive industries, every financial misstep shortens your runway and raises the stakes.

In capital-intensive industries, the financial stakes are higher:

Timelines slip.

Burn accelerates.

Runway quietly shortens.

Boards demand clarity you don’t have time to build.

Most early-stage companies unintentionally operate with:

A bookkeeper.

A bank balance.

A spreadsheet runway guess.

A CEO making decisions in the dark

This isn’t a finance function. And it isn’t enough to keep HardTech companies funded, compliant, or on track. What you need is financial leadership — not just oversight.

Strategic Interventions That Transform Our Clients' Business Trajectory

You can’t trust the numbers

Books are messy, reports lag behind, and no one’s sure what’s real.

You’re making decisions in the dark

Without clean financials or forecasts, it’s hard to hire, raise, or plan.

You’re wasting time managing finance

You’re stuck overseeing accountants, chasing reports, and cleaning up chaos.

You’re not getting CFO-level strategy

You get data, not insight. Tactics, not strategy. Numbers, not a plan.

FAQs

Your Questions, Answered

Get clarity on how our executive team and proven system drive growth for complex industries like yours

Do you replace our bookkeeper or accountant?

No. You keep your bookkeeper — we turn their work into a reliable financial foundation.
We manage, oversee, and strengthen their processes so reporting is accurate, timely, and investor-ready.

If you don’t have a bookkeeper, we’ll help you source one.

Most fractional CFOs operate alone and provide oversight, not a system.

With Faster Cashflow, you get an entire finance department: CFO Advisor, FP&A, Accounting, Supply Chain & Cost, ERP, and IT/Ops — all working together from day one.It’s the difference between having a single consultant and having a fully functioning finance machine.

Yes — many of our clients are pre-revenue after raising their first round.

Pre-revenue companies need the strongest governance, because misallocating early capital is one of the fastest ways to lose investor confidence.

We build the finance structure, model, and reporting discipline that boards expect at this stage.

Most companies see meaningful transformation within 60 days — the same amount of time it takes to hire a CFO.

Within that window, you gain clean financials, a real month-end close, accurate reporting, and early runway visibility.

Yes. Every CFO Services engagement includes a custom, integrated, three-statement 60-month financial model with scenario planning tied to operational drivers.

It’s designed for HardTech realities — R&D timelines, manufacturing cost curves, FDA pathways, supply chain variability, and multi-location operations.

Yes. We help CEOs:

  • Understand true runway and capital needs
  • Model dilution and raise timing
  • Build the financial story investors expect
  • Prepare board-ready reporting packages
  • Present their numbers with clarity and confidence

We don’t pitch investors, but we ensure you’re prepared, disciplined, and believable.

Yes — this is one of our deepest strengths.
We build financial systems that account for:

  • Complex cost accounting
  • Inventory turns and working capital traps
  • BOM analysis and COGS optimization
  • Supply chain planning
  • Multi-location or multi-facility reporting

This is where most CFO firms struggle — and where we excel.

QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, Sage — plus your internal systems.
We layer our reporting and forecasting tools on top, and your Faster Cashflow Portal provides visibility across all work.

We follow The Faster Four™:
Lay the Foundation → Build the Systems → Create the Model → Deliver the Results.

By week 8, you’ll have reliable reporting and operational discipline.

By week 12, you’ll have a fully built 60-month model and ongoing CFO-level guidance.

Once we get through onboarding – it is usually fairly minimal.
We do the heavy lifting — cleaning data, building structure, implementing workflows, correcting reporting gaps.

Your team provides receipts, context and approvals; we handle the rest.

If you have raised capital — even pre-revenue — now is the moment where financial discipline matters most.

We ensure your runway is protected, your capital is deployed strategically, and your investors feel confident in your stewardship.

Yes.
Our systems, reporting cadence, and modeling are designed to scale with regulatory milestones, commercialization, manufacturing expansion, and multi-location operations.

Your finance function grows with you — without needing to hire internally for a long time.
