How Accelerate works
Path to Go-Live
Most FP&A implementations spend months guessing at requirements before anyone touches a working system. Accelerate inverts that: you get a live foundation first, then refine it against a real planning cycle.
Readiness | Data, access, and structure confirmed, 5-day delivery begins once readiness is confirmed.
Core Setup and Go-Live | Working FP&A foundation live in 5 days. Reporting and planning models ready to use.
First full planning cycle - real UAT
Refinement and tailoring
Warranty | 30-day break/fix warranty on delivered configuration
Built for a controlled go-live
Structured refinement and guided coaching included
Flex Hours available for added scope
30-day warranty after adoption for stability and support
Gets you to a stable, usable system quickly
THE CORE QUESTION
“How do you go so fast?”
The short answer: the speed isn't in the five days, it's in everything we standardized before them.
Best practices
We're not designing from scratch
The models, statements, and driver logic come from FP&A builds we've already shipped.
You start from a proven structure instead of paying us to rediscover it.
Packaged
Streamlined and pre-built
Accelerate is a defined package, not an open-ended custom project. Scope is fixed, the build sequence is rehearsed, and nothing waits on a decision we haven't already made.
Specialized team
A dedicated data team
Data work is handled by people who do only this, not generalist consultants learning your GL for the first time on your clock.
Phase 0
The prep happens first
Our onboarding process collects everything we need in an organized, structured, tested form. Once we have it, setup is fast, because the hard part is already done.
The five days aren't a sprint. They're the payoff for a structured Phase 0 - which is exactly why we're willing to put a guarantee behind them.
De-risking the decision
We're confident in our Vena execution speed.
Choosing a planning platform and an implementation partner is a hard, visible decision. So we carry
as much of the risk as we reasonably can, and we make our commitments specific enough to hold us to.
40%
Delivery guarantee
Miss the 5-day commitment and 40% of the foundation fee comes back to you, and we still finish the project. The guarantee is a penalty on us, never an exit from our obligation to you.
30 days
Post-adoption warranty
Once the system is stable, you get a full month of support to shake out anything real usage surfaces, before you're on your own.
Week 0
An honest readiness check
We confirm your data and ownership are ready before the clock starts. If Accelerate isn't the right fit, we'll tell you in the scoping session rather than after the contract.
Qualification
Is this a good fit for Accelerate?
Accelerate is deliberately opinionated. It works extremely well for some finance teams
and poorly for others - here is the honest split.
Strong fit
You need an FP&A system operational quickly
You're open to a best-practice starting point
Your data is accessible and structured
Your team is ready to engage and make decisions
You're comfortable tailoring during adoption
May not be the best fit
You require fully custom design before go-live
You expect a complete system before first use
Your data is not ready or unclear
There's no clear internal owner for FP&A
You expect long discovery and design cycles
Qualification
If this looks like a fit, we can validate it in a short scoping session
No pitch deck. We look at your systems and data, and tell you
plainly what can be delivered in five days.
1
45-minute scoping session
2
Review systems, data, and priorities
3
Confirm what can realistically be delivered in 5 days

Align on readiness and timeline
