Services that convert cash visibility into operational confidence
Maintaining liquidity requires a mix of clear visibility, disciplined timing, and repeatable operational routines. Cleartrailroad provides services that target the mechanics of cash movement so your business can meet short-term obligations and plan for growth without surprises. We focus on immediate runway protection through audits and quick wins, then embed rolling forecast practices and playbooks that change how receivables and payables behave. Our services range from one-off assessments to ongoing embedded support, all designed to be practical, measurable, and aligned with your operational realities. Typical engagements produce near-term improvements in collections cadence, prioritized payments, and a reliable short-term liquidity runway that leaders can use to make confident decisions about hiring, vendor commitments, and investment.
Our core services
Each service is designed to be practical and measurable, producing concrete improvements in cash timing and runway.
Rolling Forecasting
Short-term rolling forecasts updated weekly or monthly that reflect actual receipts and payments, providing an operational runway leaders can act on with confidence.
Receivables & Payables Playbook
Operational templates and cadence for invoice design, collections, payment incentives, and vendor staging so working capital is preserved with minimal disruption.
KPI Dashboards & Alerts
Clear dashboards that track liquidity runway, DSO, burn rate, and aging buckets, with alert thresholds to prompt actions before shortages occur.
Embedded FP&A Support
Part-time or project-based FP&A support to run forecasts, maintain dashboards, and coach internal teams on interpreting and acting on cash signals.
Training & Playbook Implementation
Hands-on training, scripts, and templates for finance and operations teams so improvements are embedded and repeatable during growth phases.
A quick case: how a health audit creates runway
A single focused health audit often reveals a handful of operational levers that immediately improve liquidity. For example, standardizing invoice terms, adding a single reminder workflow, and shifting non-critical vendor payments into a staged schedule can free several weeks of runway without new funding. We prioritize actions by impact and ease of implementation so internal teams can act quickly and preserve core operations. The audit delivers a prioritized list with expected runway improvement estimates and a 90-day implementation plan that minimizes business disruption while producing measurable results.
