Insolvency and recovery
advice for manufacturers

Assess working capital, production commitments and creditor pressure when the manufacturing business is under strain.

Follow cash through the production cycle

Materials, labour and energy are often paid before finished goods generate receipts. Review work in progress, committed purchase orders, customer concentration and delivery schedules. The cost to finish and collect an order matters as much as its invoice value.

◆   PRESSURE POINTS

Key considerations for manufacturers

Check assets and finance agreements

Identify which machinery is owned, financed, leased or subject to security. Include tooling and customer-owned materials in the review. Do not sell or move equipment without confirming ownership and taking advice about the company’s position.

Test the recovery plan against capacity

A production forecast should use achievable throughput, current input costs and realistic payment dates. Explore creditor negotiations or formal restructuring where the business can support them. If production cannot be funded, advice should also cover employees, unfinished orders and an orderly closure.
