A focused two-week receivables assessment for distribution and construction-supply businesses.
Why most AR problems don't get solved
Late invoices, growing 90-day buckets, write-offs that creep up year after year — most companies treat these as collections problems and throw more effort at chasing money that's already late. The pattern repeats because the work happens downstream of the actual breakdown. Credit limits go stale. Risk signals get missed. Customer terms don't match customer behavior. Collectors work accounts in the order they came in, not the order that protects cash.
The AR Diagnostic is a structured, two-week engagement designed to find where your receivables function is leaking time and money — and lay out a concrete plan to fix it.
What you get
Week 1: Diagnostic. A working session with your finance leadership and a structured review of your AR aging, customer concentration, credit policy, collections workflow, and key risk indicators. Where appropriate, a focused look at high-exposure accounts and any pattern of write-offs over the last 12–24 months.
Week 2: Plan. A written Receivables Action Plan delivered at the end of the engagement, including:
A clear picture of where your DSO and bad-debt risk are actually coming from
Specific, prioritized recommendations — sequenced by impact and effort
Process and policy adjustments tailored to your customers and industry
An implementation roadmap your team can execute, with or without outside help
The deliverable is built to be acted on, not shelved. Concrete enough that your controller and credit team know exactly what to do Monday morning.
What it costs
Fixed fee: $4,500. No hourly billing, no scope creep, no surprise invoices. The fee is the fee.
What happens next
Most clients use the Diagnostic to scope what's needed next — sometimes nothing further, sometimes a focused implementation engagement, sometimes ongoing fractional credit leadership. The Action Plan is yours either way. There's no obligation to engage FoxBridge for anything beyond the Diagnostic.
Is the AR Diagnostic right for you?
The Diagnostic typically delivers the most value for B2B businesses with:
Annual revenue between $10M and $150M
A meaningful trade-credit portfolio (not point-of-sale or consumer)
Operations in distribution, building products, construction supply, plumbing, HVAC, industrial supply, or manufacturing
A growing AR aging or write-off pattern, or a credit function that's grown faster than its processes
If your business sits outside this profile but you're facing similar problems, get in touch — happy to point you in the right direction even if the Diagnostic isn't the fit.
