Catalyst

Catalyst is a modeling and analytics solution that brings structure, data consolidation, and insights to financial data spread across teams and spreadsheets. It standardizes how models output and share data, creating a dependable foundation for analysis, forecasting, and reporting. By eliminating manual consolidation, Catalyst helps organizations make decisions based on timely, trustworthy insights rather than fragmented files. It enables teams to work the way they already do – while setting up their outputs to be consolidated, used in downstream processes, and used as real-time business intelligence dashboards for leadership.

As your portfolio grows, manual consolidation, inconsistent templates, and stale data can compound into costly investment decisions, slower reporting, and rising headcount costs to fight manual processes. Catalyst fixes these problems by standardizing your models, automating consolidation, and giving you a real‑time, trustworthy source of financial truth. We often see that companies’ problems multiply by the number of manual processes they have with each additional project added, resulting in an unaddressed growing issue within FP&A and reporting.

Catalyst is for organizations that manage multiple projects or assets in Excel and need consistent, comparable financial outputs, automated data consolidation, and real‑time portfolio insights to support faster, more confident decision‑making. It is particularly valuable for renewable developers, IPPs, and investors who rely on accurate forecasting and standardized model outputs to evaluate project viability, returns, and portfolio performance at scale.

Excel remains your modeling surface – Catalyst doesn’t replace it. Instead, Catalyst solves the problems Excel alone can’t: inconsistent templates, manual copy/paste consolidation, and unreliable reporting. Catalyst standardizes your outputs, automates ingestion and rollups, and connects everything to real‑time BI dashboards so teams stop debating which workbook is correct.

In‑house builds require specialized data engineering, governance frameworks, and ongoing maintenance. They also take years to mature – and often still lack consistency across teams. Catalyst provides a proven, industry‑informed schema, standardized templates, secure data infrastructure, and prebuilt dashboards. Combined with advisory onboarding, it reduces risk and accelerates time‑to‑value.

Catalyst addresses the core operational and analytical challenges faced by finance, project, and portfolio teams:

• Manual, slow consolidation across dozens of models

• Frequent errors and inconsistent outputs

• Limited visibility and stale dashboards

• Model drift and unreliable cross‑project comparisons

• Costly copy/paste cycles and version confusion

• Rigid or expensive internal BI builds

Catalyst uses role‑based access, audit logs, and versioning controls to protect sensitive information. Our governed warehouse helps ensure data is stored securely and can only be accessed by approved users. Quality checks and controlled uploads further strengthen data integrity and compliance.
