Model review
A cold second reading of a forecast or spreadsheet already in use: where it is honest, where it leans, and what a director should not take into a bank meeting.

Operators inherit spreadsheets. A partner leaves. A consultant from Tbilisi left a file with a name nobody wants to open. A bank has asked why last August missed the plan by a third. A model review is a second pair of eyes with no duty to defend the original author.
You send the workbook, the last pack that was printed from it, and twenty minutes of context: who uses it, for which decision, and what must not leak. We return a letter of eight to twelve pages: the drivers that are doing real work, the cells that only look precise, the scenario that is missing, and a short list of questions a director should take back to the author — or to us, if you then want a rebuild.
We do not quietly rewrite the file unless you commission predictive modeling afterwards. We do not “fix” a model so it shows the growth a lender was promised. If the honest reading is that the winter cannot be known from four months of till tape, the letter will say that.
1,800 GEL covers one site and one currency. A house with a shop, a kitchen, and a second building is quoted. The review can be the last word, or the first page of a longer engagement.
