How much does express diagnostics cost?

Price on request. If you order any core JBS service within 30 days, 100% of the diagnostics fee is credited against it.

What if you find nothing material?

We refund the fee. In practice this is rare: even in well-run companies diagnostics usually finds something to fix, but we take that risk on ourselves.

What documents do you need to start?

At minimum: statements for all accounts for 6 months, the latest filed tax return, and a payroll list with net salaries. Without this package diagnostics does not start.

We sign an NDA before work starts. Client data is not passed to third parties, and all work with statements and filings stays inside the JBS team.

How long does the diagnostics take?

5 working days from receiving the complete document package: intake, analysis, written report, and a 60-minute video review.

How is this different from a full service such as due diligence?

Diagnostics is a fast orientation: 3-5 findings and a 30-day plan inside a hard time box. If you need a deep pre-deal review or a full financial model, that is a separate service, and the diagnostics fee is credited against it.

Express Financial Diagnostics

An independent look at your business finances in 5 working days

Express diagnostics is a fast, independent review of your business finances: from account statements and tax filings we find where money actually leaks and show it in numbers. The format: a 60-minute video review and a written report of 3-4 pages. Turnaround is 5 working days, the price is on request, and it is credited in full against any core service ordered within 30 days.

The first 30 minutes are free. We scope the work and name a range.

When you need this

Turnover above 3M tenge a month, but no confidence in how much the business actually earns

The owner cannot say within 5 minutes what last month's profit was and how much real cash is left

You want a fast, inexpensive second opinion before commissioning a full service

You suspect tax risks or a suboptimal regime, but have no time to look into it yourself

What's included

A 60-minute video review presenting the findings
A written report of 3-4 pages: traffic lights across 5 areas, findings, plan
3-5 specific findings with the effect estimated in tenge and a priority
A 30-day plan of what to fix first, one you can execute without JBS

What the diagnostics covers

We work through five areas of business finance and record findings for each, with an estimate in tenge where possible and a priority (red, amber, green).

Cash flows: revenue versus loans and transfers between accounts, operating cash flow, seasonality and cash gaps, the owner's personal spending from the company account
Taxes: whether the regime fits the turnover, proximity to the VAT threshold, payroll taxes, obvious assessment risks
Profitability: a rough P&L from statements, anomalous cost items, loss-making lines
Accounting and control: whether the owner understands profit and cash balance, dependence on a single bookkeeper
Debt: loan burden against operating cash flow, collateral and personal guarantees, arrears

Who it fits

Sole proprietors and LLPs in Kazakhstan with turnover above 3M tenge a month, with access to account statements and an owner ready to spend 60 minutes on a call.

It does not fit pre-revenue startups: for them we have the financial model service. It does not fit if there is no access to statements, or if the request is a conversation with no data to analyse: we will say so immediately rather than drag it out.

What we need from you

Statements for all accounts for the last 6 months (Excel or PDF from the bank)
The latest filed tax return (form 910 or 200/100, whichever applies)
A payroll list or a list of employees with net salaries

Helpful, if you have it

These do not block the start: management reports, a trial balance or account cards from 1C, loan agreements.

Guarantee and confidentiality

If we find no material findings, we refund the fee. We sign an NDA before work starts. Client data is never passed to third parties and is processed only inside the JBS team.
