What we actually do®
-
Spending structure audit
A close look at where money actually goes versus where you think it goes. Most people discover at least one category that quietly doubles over 6 months.
-
Monthly tracking setup
We configure a tracking system calibrated to your income rhythm - weekly, bi-weekly, or irregular. No template fits everyone; yours is built from scratch.
-
Variance reporting
Plain-language reports showing the gap between planned and actual figures. Delivered monthly, readable in under five minutes.
-
Dashboard configuration
A single view that shows your key numbers without noise. Built in the tool you already use - spreadsheet, Notion, or dedicated software.
Each service is available independently or as part of an ongoing monitoring arrangement. Scope is agreed before any work begins.
DIY vs. Guided monitoring
Consistent categorisation
Variance flagged automatically
Readable monthly summary
Setup time required
Who works on your numbers*
Fiona Kalder
Budget Monitoring SpecialistFiona spent eight years inside finance operations at mid-sized organisations before moving to independent consulting. She noticed that most budget problems aren't math problems - they're categorisation and timing problems that compound quietly over quarters.
At Orivanel, she works directly with each client through the audit and setup phases. There's no handoff to a junior team after onboarding.
How an engagement unfolds
A 40-minute conversation about your current tracking habits, pain points, and what you actually want to see each month.
We review 3–6 months of transaction data and map where the gaps and inconsistencies sit.
Your tracking structure is configured, tested, and handed over with a short walkthrough so you understand every part of it.
Monthly check-ins and variance reports. Optional - some clients prefer the system and run it independently from this point.
