Steady cash flow for businesses that carry real operating risk
Acacia Core Consulting helps owners and finance leads map inflows, obligations, and reserves so payroll, suppliers, and tax instalments stay covered through quiet months and growth spikes alike.
Where pressure usually shows up first
Most clients reach us when supplier terms tighten, a key customer slows payment, or expansion plans need a clearer picture of available cash before committing to hire or stock.
Payroll gaps
Revenue arrives unevenly while wages, super, and leave accruals stay on a fixed calendar. We line up expected inflows against those dates and flag weeks that need bridging.
Stock and materials
Purchasing ahead of season ties up cash long before invoices are paid. We model lead times, deposit schedules, and return cycles so you know what is truly free to spend.
Tax and compliance timing
BAS, PAYG, and instalment notices do not wait for your busiest month to finish. We build a rolling obligation calendar aligned to your actual lodgement pattern.
Consultations we run most often
Each engagement is led by a senior adviser and scoped to your books, not a generic template.
Cash Flow Planning Consultation
A structured review of inflows, fixed obligations, and reserve targets tailored to your trading calendar.

Focused assessment of receivables, payables, and stock ties to free up cash without harming supplier relationships.
View scopeWhat owners say after the first planning cycle
We finally had a week-by-week view that matched how our café actually earns — weekend peaks, mid-week quiet, and the supplier run every Tuesday. The March quiet period was less stressful because we knew which costs could flex.
The working capital review was thorough. I did wish we had started the stock conversation earlier — that part took two extra sessions — but the final cash map matched what our accountant saw.
Field notes from the practice
