Appendix 1 – Case Study Grow Management Consultants

Grow Management Consultants specialises in leadership consultancy. It has been


operational for five years. The company offers a range of services to assist companies to
assess leadership behaviour of existing managers and performance metrics. They also
design and implement customized leadership programs based on the assessment. Services
are offered Australia-wide.

The company employs a General Manager (you), 2 Principal Consultants (who are also
Directors), 1 Senior Consultant, an Administration Officer and Receptionist.

Over the last two years, the company has diversified, and now offers regular professional
development workshops on all aspects of leading and managing staff. These workshops are
conducted approximately every 3 months in all major cities including Sydney, Brisbane and
Melbourne. In 2019 – 2020, the company ran a total of 36 workshops. The company has
also recently produced an E-book about leadership techniques.

The intention is to replace the workshops with the annual conference in the next financial
year, as the workshops were not well attended. Client feedback and continued business
indicates a personalized, company focused approach in the form of consulting services is
the service of choice.

The E-book has had reasonable sales, but there needs to be a wider selection of books, as
well as more marketing. The plan is to generate $10,000 worth of sales for the e-books
during the next financial year and increasing over time.

As the General Manager for the company and with responsibility for finances, you are
currently completing the financial planning for the year ahead. This involves a review of the
company’s business plan, previous year’s profit and loss statement, the current business
plan and strategic directions and cash flow statements. Based on the review, you will be
establishing budgets and allocating funds.

In developing the budget, you are to assume a 5% increase in cost of sales, as well as a
10% increase in sales for consulting services and executive search.

As set out in the business plan, the company plans to run an annual conference each year
starting in 2021. The costs for the conference have been estimated by the Principal
Consultant and are set out in the Estimated Costs and Income document. Conference
attendance is aimed at 100 people paying $750 each.

The Principal Consultant has also asked you to review the current accounting software used
by business. The company is currently using MYOB but as it has grown, the Principal
Consultant wishes to review whether this is the best accounting software available for their
needs. He has also requested that the software have a cloud feature.

The Market

The Management Consulting industry has grown weakly over the past five years. Poor
demand from downstream markets constrained industry revenue growth, with financial
services and resources firms cutting spending on management consultants due to economic
uncertainty and falling commodity prices.

However, businesses using management consultants to introduce new business processes


and enhance operating efficiencies have partly offset this trend. Industry operators have also
increasingly incorporated analytics into their services, which offer clients greater

BSBFIN601 Appendices and Templates Version 1.0, November 2021 Page 4 of 24


understanding of their business and clients. Demand for services backed by analytics is
expected to have growth of 3.8% in 2015-16.

Research also shows that there is a need for workers to have strong leadership and
management skills to support collaborative management, managing teams for a distance,
empowering others and business acumen. Thus the demand for leadership consultancy
services is still strong.

Based on the information above, the profit margin for Grow Management Consultant is
computed as follows:

Profit Margin: (Net Income / Total Income) x 100

($613,805 / $1,321,600) x 100

46.44%

It is to be noted as well that 89% of the total income comes from consulting fees while 83%
and 44% of cost of sales and operating expenses come from salaries/wages and rent &
rates respectively for the financial year 2019 – 2020. They mark as the highest among their
respective categories.

Over the last five years, the Management Consulting industry has seen slow growth. Due to
economic uncertainties and declining commodity prices, financial services and resource
companies reduced their spending on management consultants, limiting industry revenue
growth.

As for the company, the brand name hasn’t been fully developed yet and the company is still
on process of being a large organisation.

Businesses that use management consultants to develop new business processes and
improve operational efficiencies, on the other hand, have partially offset this trend. In
addition, industry operators are increasingly incorporating analytics into their services, which
allows clients to have a better understanding of their business and customers. In 2015-16, a
3.8 percent increase in demand for analytics-based services is predicted.

According to research, workers are still required to have an excellent leadership and
management abilities to support collaborative management, remote team management,
empowerment, and business acumen. As a result, the demand for leadership consulting
services remains high.
