Frequently Asked Questions
Most experts say 18 to 24 months before the target filing date. In practice, many companies start later and spend the final months in crisis mode. Alliance helps companies get ahead of the readiness curve by building the reporting infrastructure, controls, and capabilities that public company life demands before the scrutiny of the IPO process begins.
The quality and timeliness of financial reporting, credibility of the financial model and forecasting process, strength of internal controls, and the caliber of the finance leadership team. Alliance helps companies build confidence across all four of those dimensions, so the finance function is an asset in the IPO process, not a concern.
